I love the Democrats energy solution for "the little man". Solar, wind, nuclear, ethanol, electric...none of these work in my finally paid off Explorer. Ethanol reduced my gas mileage so I'm filling up more and paying more at the pump and at the grocery store. I can't afford to buy a new fancy hybrid, electric, solar powered, wind powered Prius with a nuclear generator backup battery pack. The ONLY alternatives for us poor folks is to drill more OR the Democrats could have their Hollywood buddies who have 20 cars in each garage buy everyone fancy new vehicles. Maybe Nobel Peace Prize Winner Al Gore could sell one of his multi-million dollar private jets to give Priuses to folks. Where do I stand in line for that? Until then, I'm stuck with my Explorer. As far as "not in my backyard" is concerned, if I had oil in my backyard, I would punch a hole so fast it would make the WCA's head spin!
