The offshore drill ban was lifted and oil prices dropped quickly due to speculators.  This happened before the election.

It was dropping way before that.  Besides, I thought it was supposed to go UP after the election.

The sad things is that all the simple minds in America think just that..............merely getting him elected forced gas prices to drop.  I hear it every day.

The gas prices were falling well before the election.  President Bush was trying to improve things for McCain/Palin for the election.  With everything else going on, he just forgot to turn off the Halliburton Petroleum-Price-Control-Machine.
