Will wind power blow these guys into DC?
So Gov. Pawlenty and New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson are joining together to form a wind power coalition. They are urging their fellow governors to increase collaboration among states, spend more on wind research and seek recommendations on federal and regional policies.
The blog is interested in wind power. But it's more interested in politics. Those who run in political circles know that both Richardson and Pawlenty have been mentioned for that one spot. You know, this one.
We try to stay out of the talk over who's qualified, ready and willing to take that spot. But this news release made us wonder a bit about motivation.
As you know, Richardson is running for President and says he's focused on the top slot. Pawlenty says he's happy being governor.
We're not saying but we're just sayin'.
