New Record Highs
The price of a barrel of oil isn't the only thing that's at record high prices:
The national average price for a gallon of gasoline climbed to $4.086, according to a daily survey by motorist group AAA. That was up 0.7 cent from $4.079 the previous day, and eclipsed the previous mark of $4.08 set June 16.Gas prices have risen 2.9% in the last month and are almost 38% higher than where they were a year ago.
[...]
Last week, AAA reported that it expects the number of Americans traveling during the Fourth of July holiday travel period to decline 1.3% to 40.45 million drivers versus 41 million last year.
Yet John McCain seems more outraged over being asked a tough question from a voter about high gas prices than the cost itself.
