I don't doubt it. It's hard to overcome inertia on any issue, much less when the issue is oil and so many entrenched business men have made so much money on staying the course, even those the consequences for the US will be harsh.

BTW, here's what the rest of the world thinks of the GOSPEL win in MA. The world is in mourning, because they really don't like our GOSPEL members. This from Financial Times Deutschland:

spiegel.de
"More likely, however, is that Obama will interpret the Massachusetts loss as a signal that he should move further toward the middle and make more concessions to the conservatives -- even if this alienates his base even further, a base which had high expectations from the 'yes we can' candidate."

"For everyone else in the world, this means that they will have to bid farewell to a candidate for whom the hopes were so high. They will have to say goodbye to the charisma they fell in love with. Obama will be staying home after all."
