Gas Prices by County


Interesting, a very odd picture map is drawn of US gas pricing.

Meanwhile the GOP leadership, confirming their organizational skills again, calls for a gas-gauging investigation. This Chronicle story had no Democratic views. Senator Chuck Schumer called for an investigation a week ago on gas prices. There were many such Democratic calls - all unmentioned in this piece.

hey gary....

compare the gas map to the Survey USA chart...

http://www.surveyusa.com/50State2006/06041850StatePOTUSNet.html

three of the four states with the lowest gas prices (Utah, Idaho, and Wyoming) are three of the four states where Bush still polls over 50%.

(For some odd reason, Montana -- the 4th state with relatively low gas prices -- only gives Bush a 40% approval.)

indeed, I'd not be surprised to find a high degree of correlation between states gate prices and Bush's popularity....
