I much prefer the part of Romney's proposal that emphasizes transitioning Detroit in to the capital of America's energy sector. That seems much more viable to me.
boy you have bought the japanese thought hook line and sinker. GM, Ford and Chrylser make a lot of really great cars. The new cobalt is nice and gets like 35 mpg. I have a 3 year old Mercury Mariner that would go 200k miles if we werent going to trade in for a minivan. Not to mention my 02 saturn that has 100k miles on it and will have very little upkeep.
