“On the Republican side, Arizona Sen. John McCain is the highest-profile politician likely considering a run. For the Democrats, New York Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton is viewed as her party’s front-runner.
Both of these candidates will be so strong in the polls and fundraising that the other candidates will have a difficult time getting oxygen,” said Scott Reed, a Republican strategist.
What about other predictions?
Well, lets see, my prediction that gasoline would go over $4/gal in 2007 no longer seems like lunacy. It did back when I made it in 2001. The price of gasoline at the time of my prediction was $1.13 a gallon. Who would imagine that it would quadruple in so little time.
The reason that gasoline is so expensive in 2007 is that the price of oil goes over $100 per barrel for the Light Sweet Crude. The type we use to make gasoline. Back in 2001 the price of oil was $23 per barrel.
This price increase will FUEL inflation to a fever pitch.
