Just like a lot of factors drove it up, so are a lot driving it down.

BK, ye give our good gov't far too much credit. Someone would have to actually know what he was doing to accomplish that. Fact is the US doesn't have as big a hand in the global oil market as it once did, though we're still the biggest consumer.

A world wide reduction in need, an increasing dollar, and economic slow down is Europe are the main reasons.
They are still $2 too high anyway.

There was an interesting bit on the news (don't remember where) which stated that with retailers competing heavily with each other by chopping their profits down to a bare minimum, when you use a credit card the credit card company makes more on each gallon of gas than the retailer makes.
