Response to question about gas prices

from John Fritz (aeon30@hotmail.com)
Here's something to ponder: One of the male guests on the 3-10-00 edition of Politically Incorrect (the late night TV roundtable) inferred that perhaps the people who gave $70,000,000 to George W. Bush's presidential campaign are pulling strings to up the pump price of gasoline, hoping that this would hurt the economy in a way that that the electorate would blame on Clinton, and by association Gore. Seems plausible to me considering that Bush is from Texas, one of the big oil states. I don't know the guest's name, so if anyone else out there saw this show and knows his name I would appreicate hearing back from you on this.

If this theory is true it sure needs to be given wider coverage so that inidividuals who think George W. may be the right choice, will be better equipped to make a more informed decision. It sure would not be the action of a presidential contender who claims to be a "compassionate conservative", or who wishes to unify the country... unless of course he would be trying to unify the country against his potential leadership. Anyway , there was no chance that I would have voted for Bush before hearing of this theory...it would just give me one more reason to justify my decision.
