Spike,

"Although the prices are high, enthusiasts say that electric cars can reach a large, untapped market for vehicles with little or no tailpipe emissions."

The government bailed out General Motors. In return, GM has produced the Obamamobile. It is indicative of the idiocy that demanded it.

Costing $41,000 with a $7,500 tax credit that must be made up somehow, you could get a 4 wheel drive pick up truck for less. Like Obamacare, it is an expensive piece of touchy feely seat coverings that nobody wants.

Who will buy it?

Watch your local government budgets. The Obamamobile sounds like something Supervisor Heland would make Des Moines County purchase. These vehicles will save all the cottonwood trees along Flint Creek. Tourists will then flock to see Stars Cave Nature Center and we will all have jobs.

Heland's logic makes as much sense as an Obamamobile.

Robert McNamara went from the Edsel at Ford Motor Company to producing the Vietnam War under Lyndon Johnson. Now that Barry has given us the Obamamobile, what's next?

R. E. O.

Heland will need the industrial version.
