If Obama stays in power, you will look back on $.1310 per KWH as The Good Old Days. you are quite right, and no one should be surprised. After all, one 0's campaign promises was that in his administration electricity costs would necessarily skyrocket.
i think that McCain could have won if he'd used 0's own words in the campaign (and not go AWOL when the banks imploded.). But he was mostly concerned about being nice to the Negro.
Not that we would have been much better off under McCain. It's arguable we'd be in een worse shape.

At least it was parked in their driveway. It torched the van that was next to it though.

sorry about the double post double post.
The hazards of posting from a phone.

Well I hope he also rolls back the absurd CAFE standards 0 decreed.
If not, I predict a boutique industry in refurbishing old cars not subject to new car CAFE requirements.

They’re going to rename it the Dolt in honor of Obama’s one and only term.

The Volt was DOA!
Obama stole your tax dollars to keep it alive.
The Volt can’t survive in the free market, because there is no demand at the price of it’s actual cost.
Obama HATES “free markets”!

If (when) Romney wins, will he shut the line forever and make the current inventory collectable?
The marketplace is going to do it. the volt is a waste of Taxpayers money!!
it will be a collectable car like the YUGO is!!

Well, that makes more sense than the original.

“Of course having said they are a bad investment, lets pretend and flash forward to the Barrett Jackson auction in 2052. I still would find it hard to believe that the 2012 Volt would be going for $100k.”
The big question for me as to whether the Volt would be collectable then is would you be able to obtain replacement batteries for it?

Cadillac version of the volt
I'll buy a LINCOLN then a Caddy. Caddy used to be good cars, but I'll never buy a GM product (or a USFIAT - FKA Chrysler) again!!

Good grief! Here it is, a good half-day until the next debate -- and FR is already bogging down and doing the "double-post bit" -- IF you can even get a response.
With this level of server performance, forget even logging in to FR on election day... :-(
