Well...it's been about a month since the election. Despite some price stability in crude oil (down a bit today), pricing at the pump has steadily climbed over the last month. Although I don't have the time or inclination to graph this stuff, I believe we dipped at or near a three year price-bottom on or very close to election day.

I think it's safe to expect a steady climb going forward unfortunately. Although the price drop didn't save the House and Senate for the Repubs, I'll bet the bloodbath would have been much worse if we had been paying $3+ on Nov 7.

Now, I'm a political conservative and always have been. But, there is clearly some unchecked manipulation going on here.
