I agree with pierce, the thought that Obama is somehow going to enter office as a savior of oil dependence is fantasy, but it did help him get elected. Given that, when gas prices were above $4 in most parts of the country we did decrease our use on a national level which hurt the oil producing countries. I think we need to continue to strive towards energy independence as a method of keeping our eye on a goal with the firm knowledge that we may never get there in this lifetime.
