I wonder what strategy these "leaders" came up with at that meeting. My guess is they were unable to spot any opening where they could push though a wind tax credit extension more or less unnoticed.
What these wind proponents in the Cabinet fail to understand is that this is not 2009 when nobody asked any tough questions about the enourmous size of the stimulus spending that was handed over to Big Wind.
There is lot more (healthy) skepticism now and lot more people paying attention to the reality of spending our way into national bankruptcy on pet energy concepts that simply don't work.
