[President Obama] can decide how much money for oil and gas is going to other nations, and to get that money here and to create jobs here and to stabilize prices here, Romney said. He ought to be taking advantage of all of our offshore, and ANWR, and North Dakota and Oklahoma and Texas gas resources instead of trying to hold them off. Natural gas is a huge win for us and through the EPA hes been trying to hold that off.
And they pummeled Rick Perry for his gaffes...
I predict the republican party is toast after this election...
