Good job democrats in dropping the gas prices like you promised in '06... or maybe not promised... but they sure blasted the point... "If you elect the republicans gas is going to hit $4 a gallon.

Woot... way to go

You can't really rate them the same way we rated the republicans until they get veto power away form Bush. Right now they can pretend that they are not doing their jobs because Bush will send back anything they do.

This is a good thing. They need to produce less gas guzzlers and more high MPG vehicles. Reduce the demand. On the plus side of thing, A S.D. town has voted to build a refinery.
