And even now, Gray Davis is milking the situation by causing (indirectly) a sharp upward trend in gasoline prices. Elect him, and he will fight the evil refineries and force them to sell gasoline at a loss, which will be made up by taking from the surplus in the California state treasury. It worked for the electric utilities, didn't it?

Small flaw. Not too much surplus left in the state treasury. And the oil companies have other markets for their products, outside of California.

Is Gray Davis deranged, or does he take pills to remain so willfully uninformed?

Theoretically, Simon is in the position to rebuff these ridiculous claims and place the fault on Davis.

Well if it's hot summer Davis will be even more cooked. All those air conditioners running with the new super high-tiered electricity rates and blammooo, Davis is the guy everyone will blame as they write the checks. November won't be far enough away for many to forget…
