<<<<Net oil imports into the US are the lowest in twenty years>>>

Do you think the average voter cares though? What the voter will care about is the prices they pay at the pump. It is now over 4 bucks a gallon here.

When FOX puts up their chart to compare gas of $1.98 four years ago and $4 bucks today that is going to impact voters. Doesn't take a brain surgeon to know this is hurting the average working man. If imports are down - is the high price of gas the result of decline in oil supplies as argued by Wharf - or falling value of US dollar?
