“David, it doesn’t help when the Republican presidential candidate is also a radical environmentalist.”
That is correct. John McCain is hurting his own campaign with his “good person” anti-intellectualism concerning environmental issues. Still, he is the lesser of evils. McCain may indeed leave something to be desired on these matters—but he is not Al Gore, Jr. Also, this should not deter other GOP candidates from pushing for more realistic energy policies. The Republicans admittedly sometimes fall short. They deserve perhaps no more than a C grade on energy issues. Democrats, however, have richly earned a F!
