Gasoline, heating prices will spell Bush's doom.
Gasoline here in the deep south is up to 2.10 a gallon. This morning's fill-up was the first time I experienced gas price panic. Sixteen and some odd gallons for 35.00.

Even worse, heating fuel costs are expecte to be up at least 70%.

Lots of us only use heating fuel in the late fall and winter. Heating my small cabin usually costs me around $700 each winter. I will experience sticker shock when the cost goes up to $1100 this winter.

I really don't see how Bush can weather these price increases, not to mention the domino effect in that prices for everything rise when transportation costs rise.

It's going to be a long, expensive winter.
