that isn't what is going to happen unless the entire US market goes into a new depression.

Just the opposite is going to happen... being that we are the country we are... there will still be many people with the means and want to have a fast, powerful, and polluting automobile... and that will drive the second-hand market into either a further appreciating market, or at least far less depreciating when it comes to the cars that are being regulated.

McCain just came to Detroit... and the only thing he was heard saying was this

"Detroit can make hybrid cars, that is the answer" or something similar..... very uninspiring John (unfortunately, this whole NY Times thing just came out so we can't hear more of John's views on destroying the auto industry).

ug. I'm sick of these politicians....
