RE:"Gore playing up the fact that some people might face a cold winter without lower gas prices was brilliant.. it conveyed urgency to tap into the reserve.. consumers hate high gas prices.. so this idea is an instant winner... and Cheney/Bush come across as trying to defend the big oil companies (and being in their house.. since they both formerly ran oil companies or helped to if I am not mistaken)"

That fact is that these sleeze balls will do anything for a vote...even compromising the long term for a "get to the election" fix. Fact is that Clinton/Gore have done little if nothing to prevent this in the last few years, even in the face of numerous warning signs. Truth is you can't blame the true problem, the consumers, because they vote. So you divide and conquer. Blame the easiest target. The oil companies. So why are the gloves off OPEC...got to be fear or money.
