The most substantive discussion of the presidential debate
last night involved energy policy. Each candidate offered considerable detail on his own program
and a solid critique of the opponent's -- to the point of it being a bit confusing for the
folks outside the energy industry. Really,
though, it boils down to this: despite
whatever initiatives the current administration has undertaken, the cold, hard,
undeniable truth is that gasoline prices are twice what they were when Obama
took office. With that simple fact – and
on that fact alone -- there’s no way Obama can fairly claim his energy policy has
worked for the ordinary American consumer.
Or is he just going to blame higher gasoline prices on
Hillary, too?
