Maybe, but XLE and DUG are showing possible double top and double bottoms. Speaking of double bottoms, how 'bout them Olsen twins!

FWIW, Dick Cheney is making a trip to Philadelphia today to witness the first round of Taxpayer Rebate Checks being printed in NE Phila. They will arrive to taxpayers just in time to fill the gas tank (one last time, at the highest prices) for the Memorial Day Weekend. Pay particular attention to the wording of the press release: Philadelphia Financial Center = IRS Processing Office cbs3.com Cheney Headed To Philadelphia PHILADELPHIA (AP) ? Vice President Dick Cheney is planning a brief visit to suburban Philadelphia. Cheney will arrive at the Willow Grove Naval Air Station in Montgomery County on Thursday morning. He will tour the Philadelphia Financial Center, which disburses payments on behalf of federal agencies. The tour will be followed by a speech to the center's employees. Things that make you go HMMM..... Tim

Slider You stated: "Any further gasoline spike is unequivocably going to guarantee a triple sweep for the Democrats in November, who will waltz to victories in the House, the Senate, and the Presidency." This very much remains to be seen and given your view of that possible Republican mantra one must consider that the Repbulicans would not allow high Gasoline to hurt their chances to the Whitehouse-that is of course if they really are behind the current rise in the Oil commodity. And then again... Overall,one may also consider why the Republicans would even want the White House given the Economic 'Obomination' that anyone taking the Oath of office come 2009 would inherit and have to contend with. There are,of course no quick fixes here. Higher inflation may yet proove to be a reality that many will have to navigate for having to have pre-live the excessive fabricated growth on the back of huge budget deficits during the last five years and more. Basicly,imo,this administration borrowed growth from the future by financing it through various and complicated debt obligations. Maybe the cycle of a longer Recessionary/low growth climate may yet be needed to offset this malaise. Again,why the Republicans would even want the White House is amusing. Obamma may yet indeed inherit a Financial Obammination. Granted Oil needs to consolidate but after the elections my thoughts take us right back to the races.
