Not sure about Obama but the last time that someone uttered the word "speculation" in congress the price of crude dropped like an anchor down to $40 a barrel. I watch the markets like a hawk, ocassionaly trade, will tell you that the large specs, small specs and the open interest is through the roof, no doubt the hedge funds are involved again. On the other hand, the commercials are heavily short so I'm looking for lower crude prices, same with heating oil and to a degree the gas prices as well. The caveot in all of this is the US Dollar which the federal reserve is hell bent on debasing, we'll see.

If the dollar inflates, gas prices will go up, that's a given.

I have an annual physical coming up soon. I will tell my doctor, " I'm having a terrible problem with gas. It's over 3.10 a gallon! "

I saw $3.85 for a gallon of premium on Chicago's North Side yesterday. Gas is usually at least 30-40 cents cheaper just across the state line in Indiana so I NEVER gas up in Chicago.

The Mercedes can't burn anything BUT premium!
