While everybody has been all pissed off about high gasoline prices, this is what has happened to the price of natural gas. How would you like your job and your local economy to be producing the competition?

Eyeballing the results, it looks like close to 50% of Manchin voters voted for Romney, which is remarkable.
The Senate usually has at least one weird result like that each election. Baucus (D) got 73% in MT in 2008. Dorgan (D) got 68% in ND in 2004. Jeffords (R) got 66% in VT in 2000. Even in landslide years: Boren (D) got 76% in OK in 1984. Eastland (D) got 58% in MS in 1972, when McGovern only got 20%. Go figure out the American electorate Tongue
