Why did the price of oil go up as soon as it was learned that the Dems won the house?

Everyone knew that gas went down so they could keep their people in office and that it didnt matter which party won the gas prices will be going back up.The fact is the Republicans help the oil companies by kicking back corporate welfare and they planned on helping them any way they could.Why did the price of oil go up as soon as it was learned that the Dems won the house?
because the Bushes sacrificed income to feebly attempt a win for repugs...after all they didn't have much to go on......it's a repug scamWhy did the price of oil go up as soon as it was learned that the Dems won the house?
the 1st thing Dems do is to raise taxes to fund social programs. buy now be4 it goes up even more because of higher taxes
Big oil realized that couldn't geta way with those sky high prices now that the Dems have control.
Greed
another ploy by the oil companies to gouge more money from us
Big Business - wanting to make as much profit as possible before the Dems cap the price!!
Speculators know that Dem policy will hamper competition and prevent market equilibrium from being established. Speculators, not Big Oil, drive volatile pump prices.
Dems mean more trouble and higher prices.
That figures it would. Probably all a scam for the elections, then come the day after election day %26amp; they will skyrocket again!
Bush got pissed? And now he is going to punish us! The Bastard!
Yes I do, because it was mainly lowered to help show that things were going back to normal.
republicans were probly promising kickbacks of some sort, i sorta think most ppl knew this was not possible in longterm so it bit silly really





now that dems have house and senate then there is no chance of any republican policies getting thru so that chance s gone now
The latest ';reasoning'; I heard is that in the global economy, the ';other'; gas companies haven't done anything to increase their productivity even though the demand is higher around the world. Personally I beleive it's just big business manipulation to keep those profits raging.........
Democrats are traditionally bad for big business. The Stock market will also fall quite a bit today
