What do you make of this big wind story out of Tejas today, Jerome? Is this really a "massive" project?

Were Obama to adopt and employ even 50% of the ideas and deliver them with 50% of the charisma of Gore it could make a significant difference. Obama is great with soaring rhetoric on ideals and broad issues. Gore is better with uplifting rhetoric dealing with broad ideas based on specific proposals. I just have my doubts that the Obama campaign benefits by resolute avoidance of specifics. What is it going to take? McCain adopting Gore's plan? By no means out of the question.

If sanity be culturally normative, then by the norms of this culture I claim insanity.
