Saturday Hillary Clinton, John Edwards, and Dennis Kucinich all expressed their views on how to fight global warming and encourage energy independence. They all expressed the need for government mandate to reduce greenhouse gases, as well as their willingness to negotiate treaties on the environment. According to many surveys, After immigration, reducing oil dependence and global warming is the second most important issue among independent voters. Therefore this issue could help to sway the undecided 20% of voters to the Democratic side in 2008.
I think that this is an issue that plays to both the Democratic base and independents, so it does double-duty.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad the candidates are discussing global warming. It's a very important issue that needs to be recognized and addressed.
