JF, good news and bad news about the GM Volt:

The good news: Over 33,000 people have already signed on to buy the new GM Volt when it comes out in 2010.

The bad news: They are only willing to pay $31K for the car, but it costs GM $40K to build each one:

It sounds very nice to say, as Barack Obama has done perhaps too much, that the upcoming election is about "hope" and "change." But those anodyne words conceal what I think is the public's true desire: Negation.

Come November, voters will have a chance to rid themselves of a political order that they have come to hate. Sen. Obama's task is to help them heave it overboard.


I couldn't agree more with this article. Thanks for posting.
