Russ - Thoughts on Unleaded Gas?

Here is a post from Steve on the fool....

If UG was moving in parallel with POC as it did last spring, UG at retail would be $2.63 here, instead of $1.89. There was a gas war yesterday between a Marathon station and a Sunoco in a Detroit burb. The price got down to $1.37 before the war ended when the Marathon station ran out of gas.

Refiners must be getting the beejus squeezed out of them right now. Retail gas prices are a political hot issue so I can't discount industry support for BushCo. I'm tempted to say that low gas prices are a result of supply and demand, but if that was the case, why would refiners use $44 oil to make $1.89 gas?
