I am a hopeless liberal, but I am going to miss Senator John Warner when he retires this November.
In response to the gas price crisis, he has recommended what may well be the least popular and most effective solution: a return to the 55mph speed limit.
It would increase mileage, therefore lowering demand for gasoline and the price for it, and no one wants to do it. No one. Only driving better mileage vehicles could have the same kind of effect, and few want to do that, either.
Senator Warner, this lead-footed liberal agrees with you. I don't like it, but you're right.
I hope the right people are listening.
