I’m comforted by the fact that “the experts” are almost always wrong. Besides, gasoline is going to be $4.50 per gallon this summer, minimum. People are going to be so ready to throw Obama out by November that he might not last till the election.
Bingo! Tallguy.
Yes and no. The Democrats will vote for Obama at $6 per gallon. But his base will less energized, so the outcome will be determined by how energized the Republican base is. Newt has his weaknesses, I have some bones to pick with him. But Romney is a guaranteed loser as regards the Republican base and that means he can not win. He's not going to win over any Dems but he will certainly drive away a lot of Republicans.
If you're a Democrat, why vote for "Obama Lite" when you already have the real thing?
And if you are a true Republican, why vote for "Obama Lite"?
