...when gas prices become a NEWS BULLETIN!

The Detroit Free Press has a front page article on their website about record low gas prices. It's labeled as a NEWS BULLETIN.
Two Speedway service stations in Flint are offering gasoline for $1.99.

They are among the first gas stations to post sub-$2-a-gallon gas prices in metro Detroit in more than a year [my emphasis], according to AAA Michigan ... The average price for gasoline in Michigan, which has declined for eight straight weeks, is now $2.16 a gallon. Today's prices are 75 cents lower than they were this time last year. Nationally, gas prices are still averaging $2.30.

If this all isn't politically motivated, I'll be a monkey's uncle!

My prediction: Within six weeks of November's election, gas prices will head straight back up.
