Naaaah. My father-in-law, who is a clever but conservative and economically and politically disinterested man, made the connection between tanking oil prices and the tanking stock market unprompted. Yeah - everyone's retirement fund is being trashed at the moment. But gas prices are low and this looks a lot like Wall Street being punished. Anybody trying to craft this into a "thanks, Obama" moment has their work cut out for them.
