Want to bet gas prices will go lower as soon as Bush is out of office?
 

I guarantee it! watch and see....he is milking it before leaving....and yes he has a lot to do with it all....believe it! His dad did and passed on the business ( USA, Inc. ) to him...

Then you should be playing the markets over at www.intrade.com
That shits been fun and profitable for some time now. No longer care about url since according to whats now plastered on the site 20/20 did episode on it.

Gas rates
Death rates
Suicide rates
Mortgage rates

will all do down once that desk monkey has left the building.

as much as you hope , I doubt it will happen. They have shown that the market will bear the high prices, why would they reduce it, other that superficially. Then think up another 1000 bullshit excuses to raise it:2 cents:

No, asshole.

Much as Kyoto being denied during Clinton's quest, it will be months to years before the previous administration's policies go into affect.

That site wont load?

After? The price will go down right in the middle of the election same as it did in 2004.

Actually the republicans had a big slap in the face last night.A democrat won in MS he wasnt supposed to.They are getting nervous.

Let's bet, how much does it need to drop for it to be a drop?

More then .10 a gallon?

Gas prices typically lower after Labor Day weekend. So should we compare like the last 5 years of avg gas price in November?

Gas prices often change when something major happens. That could be considered something major... so yes, they probably will change.

I agree with Sly, You will also find the dollar will go up as well.

Gas prices went up yesterday because Iran merely spoke of cutting back on production... but they will most likely not do anything of the such. They need the money too much... at least that's what analysts are saying.

Speculative markets are funny... interesting, but funny.

i dont see it happening ..

There will be minor adjustments...but the price of gas will continue to rise...as demand rises.

Yup. Lets also not forget that China, Russia and India are consuming more and more oil so it's not just the USA that is driving up the price. There are other major global players now who are consuming at an alarming rate.

Peek oil.

Research it.

I agree.

I believe the only thing making gas prices so high is the Oil Companies having a last hurrah before the party is over. It's just too suspect that they've shot up all of a sudden as Bush's term is ending.

peak oil, supply and demand are all bullshit excuses everyone wants you to believe. The real reason for the high oil prices is because our dollar is in the shitter. In relation to gold the price of oil has only gone up slightly. That is a huge indicator that inflation is what is causing the high oil.

Iran would do no such thing. They need money and leverage to pursue their nuclear agenda. Which is another reason why the US 'getting out of Iraq' is a bad idea. Anyone who thinks Bush is responsible for the price of oil is merely uneducated.

exactly!

ohh please!! Bush made more damage than any other president before him.

Don't know about oil and the dollar, but the world will rejoice, that's for damn sure.

If you are serious on betting I have $1k US that says gas prices will go higher in 2009 then they are now.

They may go down a little but they will go back up again. I bet we see $6 a gallon by the end of 2009 if not sooner.

Global demand is getting higher every day. Price isn't going to go down.
