Pelosi and Reid willing to spend their political capital on opposing drilling?

The democrats and congress and their staunch opposition to drilling may be using up some of their good will. The Republican brand is as low as it has been since I suppose the end of the Nixon era and the democrats are feeling extremely confident about their chances in November.
While all major polls suggest between 66% and 75% of Americans support drilling Pelosi and Reid will not budge. I believe this is hurting your moderate democrats of which your majority is based on. If I was a democrat representing a conservative disrict in Ohio, Georgia, or North Carolina I would be furious with Pelosi. She is atleast going to cause a few folks, who try and represent their district well, to lose some sleep.
Can it be enough to give the GOP either the house or the senate NO, but it will certainly limit gains in the house and keep Reid from his 60 seat majority in the Senate. Republicans, conservatives, moderates, blue dog Democrats all just want some common since legislation that allows oil companies to drill. NO WE CANNOT DRILL OUR WAY OUT OF THIS, but we can have cheaper oil that does not leave us dependent on foreign terror supporting oil while we wait for renewable fuels which we all want.
Barack Obama whom is a special interest pet will not allow drilling, but if congress gets its act together and allows drilling he will be in a tough spot. Hollywood Hussein should go ahead and cave on this issue because sooner or later he will have to....

Bush does it part... DEMS do nothing...

oil nears 150$ a barrel DNC does nothing

Dems laugh as you vote against your economic interest as they continue to accept money from big oil and sit silently by as prices continue to rise. Stopbarack is no fan of W, but atleast he is promoting solutions to our supply shortage.
