Gas is down... Has demand dropped? NO!
And it keeps droping.
The reasons are two fold.
The Democrats have a growing power base.
The winter heating season is upon us, and the oil companies know they cant have people freezing to death.

demand hasn't dropped? Can you back that with data or are you just spouting off some bullshit of the day?Originally Posted by Jarod
Also, HOW exactly would a growing power base for the Dems effect the price of oil/gas? Their investment into Alt energy would have an effect on future price expectations... is that what you are referring to?

"Scientists don't use "averages". Maybe armchair supertools on message boards ascribe some meaning to "averages" between two random data points. And maybe clueless amatuers "draw a straight line" through two random end data points to define a "trend". Experts don't.
They use mean annual and five year means in trend analysis. Don't tell me I have to explain the difference to you. "

Demand did drop.
But don't believe me:

The drop in demand and the rise of the dollar against other currency creates a drop in the price per barrel.
Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.

Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.

Perhaps speculation did also play a part in the high price ?
Naah of course not....
Bush doubled the debt from 5 trillion to 10 trillion.
Proving tax cuts work!
Bush asked for and signed for the TARP money.
The Republican senate leader backed Bush on this.

We already killed that moose.
It can be as much as $25 to $30 of the high price.

From recent evidence I think those numbers can at least be doubled.
