Remember when "drill, baby, drill" was going to reverse a horrible electoral year for Republicans in Congress?
Turns out maybe not so much:
The possibility that Democrats will build a muscular, 60-seat Senate majority is looking increasing plausible, with new polls showing a powerful surge for the party’s candidates in Minnesota, Kentucky and other states.
There’s even a chance that Georgia’s Saxby Chambliss — proud possessor of a 0 percent rating from the League of Conservation Voters — could be upset by Democrat Jim Martin. That would be truly stunning.
Could a Democratic White House and a filibuster-proof Democratic majority in both houses of Congress still screw the pooch on climate and energy issues? You betcha!
