Obama's oil policies suck, but they are not driving this phenomenon, oil output has increased recently due to Libya coming back on-line.

This is about gasoline supply. When one week I read about gasoline use utterly tanking, and the next week I see the usual babbling talking heads trying to come up with reasons why the price of gas will skyrocket despite severely declining domestic demand, I smell BS.

Gasoline usage is dropping like a rock. This certainly undermines the MSM claims of "recovery". And the mild winter across most of the US certainly hasn't cut back driving.

Could the oil markets be manipulated to push the prices up now, and drop next fall? This could be the setup for an October surprise.

The Palin/McCain ticket collapsed in the polls when the price of gasoline dropped the summer of 2008.
