Super Tuesday

The Super Tuesday results are coming in - as predicted it's neck and neck between Obama and Clinton, and McCain seems to be racking up wins (though both Huckabee and Romney have pulled in one win so far).  So what does this mean for Global Warming? 

Well, both Obama and Clinton have co-sponsored the strongest global warming legislation in the Senate (the Sanders-Boxer bill) and actively campaigned on the issue.  McCain was the co-author  (with Independent Joe Lieberman, who has endorsed him) of the first ever comprehensive global warming cap and trade bill in congress.  McCain has also been public in his disagreement with President Bush on the issue.  At the last Republican debate he said "It’s no secret that I have disagreed with the Bush administration in not being more active in addressing the issue of climate change... young Americans care, Californians care, people all over this country care, and we have to address this issue."

If McCain continues to win and takes on either Obama or Clinton, the next President will definitely take global warming quite seriously.
