From the Chicago Tribune:

That may help explain the results of a recent Washington Post poll. Asked whether "recent price increases in gasoline caused any financial hardship for you or others in your household," 63% of the respondents said yes. That's well below the 77% that answered yes during the price surge of 2008, and it was the lowest affirmative response to the same

One part of me is outraged by the blatant spin they put on the gas price hike. The other part says that these libs are whistling past the graveyard, thinking 0bama won't get tagged with the recession that, not might but WILL, result from energy prices "skyrocketing". They're actually cheering the fact that, in a sense, it's only 63% who HATE this regime.
