State Of The Union Economy

The average price of gas here in the US has reached $4 a gallon for the first time. Crude oil is at $138.54 a barrel, up almost $11 in a single day Friday, with Morgan Stanley predicting $150 a barrel by July 4. Unemployment jumped by half a percentage point in May, the largest monthly jump in a generation. And more than a million US homes are now in foreclosure, the most ever.

Tough year to be running as a Republican.
