DOTC: When Will Red State Idaho’s Gas Prices Fall?
Dan of the County: I see gas in Iowa is down to about $2 a gallon and we're still WAY above the national average at about $3. In fact, an article in the Statesman said Idaho is now higher than Caleefornia for the first time ever. While I suppose it's just a coincidence that prices are dropping off right at this time after being at such artificially high levels (nice "October Surprise"), but you'd think a nice Red state like Idaho would at least get in on some of the action ...
DFO: I ran a link last week to a Billings Gazette story that revealed that Montana gas was higher than any place in the nation but Hawaii and, I believe, California. Sounds like we're pushing our way to the front of the line. Do you have a link, DOTC? BTW, Any Mouse predicted early this year that gas would be selling for $2 per gallon by the election, to improve Repub chances of keeping control of Congress. I laughed at the time. Now, it looks as though he may be right. I'd consider him a prophet. But I remember that he predicted on the day of Slick Willie's re-election bid that Bob Dole would win.
