Due to the 2008 Presidential elections and its historical hype about change, hope, and straight talk, the price of Vaseline is on the rise. Experts
predict that there is no end in sight and Vaseline companies could be seeing record profits, more than the last 20 years combined. Congress is keeping
an eye on the situation and may subpoena the CEO's of these companies. Stores are worried that come November they won't be able to keep the product
on the shelf and manufacturers are worried they won't be able to keep up with demand. Folks, this could lead to a shortage. A shortage when this
product is most needed. When confronted with this issue, one candidate said that he could see the reason for people like himself who make $250,000 or
more needing it but that the rest need not to worry. The candidate then went on to explain how many bills he, not Congress, passed to help change
Americans. The other candidate said he personally uses the product. Maybe too much information. Anyway, he went on to say that Americans need to buy
even more to help lubricate the economy. He went on with his straight talk about taking the grease out of pork to make more Vaseline. Based on what
these candidates have stated, this reporter highly recommends you get your Vaseline early before we reach Peak Vaseline. Come January there may be no
Vaseline left. And one thing is for sure, you can't borrow mine because I will have to make mine last till the 2012 Elections.
