Why doesn’t cutting the gas tax this summer make sense? It’s Econ 101 tax incidence theory: if the supply of a good is more or less unresponsive to the price, the price to consumers will always rise until the quantity demanded falls to match the quantity supplied. Cut taxes, and all that happens is that the pretax price rises by the same amount. The McCain gas tax plan is a giveaway to oil companies, disguised as a gift to consumers.

And traditionally, the one who gets to go the the general is the one who WINS THE DEM VOTES in the primaries and caucuses. Funny how the Hillbots want to change THAT rule, too. So lets check the progression: first what was important was delegates. The it was superdelegates. Then delegates did not matter because it was who was ahead in the popular vote. Now that that looks undoable, we now get to the entirely amorphous "electability" argument. but yopu would think that the person with MORE Dem support would be considered more electable. No. Now we go by "momentum", defined as who won what during a subjective time period chosen by Hillary. And you guys wonder why people think she is untrustworthy! Uh, huh.
