…now a central issue in the Romney campaign.

This is sure to make the liberal tree hugger’s heads explode.

I’d keep hammering away at the failed green jobs initiatives that the SCOAMF has been pushing from day one. Easy pickings.

Romney to declare goal of North American energy independence by 2020

LITTLE ROCK, Arkansas (Reuters) – Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney will lay out policies on Thursday aimed at achieving North American energy independence by 2020 by pursuing a sharp increase in production of oil and natural gas on federal lands and off the U.S. coast.

In the coming days and weeks, the official said, Obama will continue a constant drumbeat where he touts his strategy — including his push for green energy — while responding to false attacks on issues about his record on domestic energy production.
