I need to change my shorts (none / 0)

I got excited by the idea of gas prices being the number one issue in the election.  Can you imagine McCain trying to explain all that shit Ken just said?

Yeah, the swing voter is going to take all that in and believe it.  I thought Democrats were the ones who lose elections trying to explain nuance and why the obvious conclusion is not so obvious.  Please contact the McCain campaign with this strategy immediately!

Yes (none / 0)

I think the angle of:

 Destroying the environment to bring down oil prices by cents, and making billions more in profit for big oil will go down well with the American people especially at this moment! Is it not obvious that ANWR will solve America's needs? Its a election year winner for the Republicans!

I don't even think that much (none / 0)

I just think the swing voter will say Gas prices bad, incumbent parties fault.

Pretty simple.

Good luck with that.  Just keep highlighting the high gas prices and offering your pedantic egghead theories.  Just don't let anyone forget the gas prices are high and McCain is a member of the incumbent party.

Actually, the majority of Americans are blocking drilling because they are tired of their environment being flushed down the toilet.  Drilling and mining are finally being blocked at the state and local level in Colorado because the people have finally seen what the damage is and it isn't pretty.  There are dozens of other examples where the Bush admin has tried to violate environmental standards to help out his energy buddies only to be blocked at the state and local level where the people are paying attention and have the power to do something about it.
