3. You know what? I don't know. We have a fuel efficient car
and I ride the bus a lot. I am not affected by daily gas price changes. A few years ago we were riding to a wedding with some people we didn't know - they were from California, and they started asking us about gas prices in our area. Neither of us knew and they were shocked. "How can you not know? Don't you DRIVE?" Turns out that their primary vehicle was an RV! LOL.

6. No, it has stayed steady
over this past week. Keep in mind, though, that I live in California, so we are paying on average 20c more a gallon than the other 49 states (I suspect except Alaska and Hawaii, the freak states).

7. Betcha it'll come down again a week before the election.
So the Bushistas can tell us how much better things are now.

Just like this "middle class tax cut", which is effectively saying, "Good news! Your financial status will remain just as lousy as it is now instead of getting worse!"

...Not that B/C will tout it that way.

10. Up about 12 cents, to $2.05, in Milwaukee
but we're on "city gas" here. Your "country gas" is a bit cheaper...
