It is unlikely, at least for the immediate future. When there are so many variables involved, it is very difficult to predict. Wind and gulf currents are important factors which do not remain constant. To enter the gulf stream, it must first enter the loop current. So far, the oil spill has not entered the loop current, at least in noticeable quantities. The longer oil stays in the gulf, the better as natural forces will degrade and disperse the oil.

A gulf stream is water ,and a jet stream is air.
the gulf stream gets its warmth from the tropics
The Gulf Stream ring is formed when Gulf Stream meanders break off the Stream to create independent circulatory systems. Because of the formation of this ring, the warm tropical water from south of the Gulf Stream can be moved to north of the Gulf Stream.
Without the Gulf Stream, these regions would be colder than they are. How does tWithout the Gulf Stream, these regions would be colder than they are. How does the Gulf Stream keep these regions warm?he Gulf Stream keep these regions warm?

The Gulf Stream.It's called the North Atlantic current (continuation of the Gulf Stream)gulf stream also known as the north atlantic current
It died down before it was around the gulf stream, but it restrengthened when it hit the Gulf Stream.
