James Baker used to say that “cheap beer and dollar gas” was all that average Americans who bother to vote really care about.  In spite of all the angst generated by the “MSM and the blogosphere” current US stocks of oil can last us for about a month and, in spite of that, at-the-pump gas prices on the eve of “Labor” Day weekend are some of the lowest we’ve seen all year.  Supply, demand, “free markets”… just another reminder that you can’t deny an American his/her right to the “High Life.”  See Huey Long down in cryo for details.
