Clinton, in his 2000 campaign for its New York headquarters, the Senate, spoke against lifting the federal gasoline control.

Bush is not a polemic, Tuesday, but his spokesman earlier, in substance on the page Obama.

Dana Perino, spokeswoman for the White House, said gasoline prices are “totally agree high, but I think it would be unfair and unfortunate for American consumers to be led to the assumption that it is a correction in the short term. ” In North Carolina, where Clinton Trails Obama in polls by a margin of two, could Easley approval of important impulses.

Obama, for its part, has tried to renew the shoulders of controversy over comments by his former pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr.
