It will have a huge impact if the prices stay down, IMHO. The problem is that I don't think they will stay down. Gas prices have dropped right before the last two election cycles and I am no fan of conspiracy theory, but you have to wonder if big oil is not trying to ease the burden on the electorate. Hence come Jan the price will be back up to the mid $3.50 range or more. Just a guess. My feeling has always been that the cost of gas will be whatever the market can bare, hence it will go back up to $4 and stay there.
