In Case You Didnt Know:

  • John McCain and Governor Sarah Palin have a comprehensive "All of the Above" Energy Plan to take America to energy independence and bring down gas prices. McCain and Governor Palin will turn to nuclear power, clean coal, solar and wind power, conservation, and offshore drilling to solve our energy crisis. John McCain and Sarah Palin have tremendous faith that America can become energy independent.

 

  • But that will take a President and Vice President who are willing to look at all the options on the table to solve our energy crisis.  Senator Obama has expressed his opposition to offshore drilling, nuclear power, and host of other energy initiatives.

 

  • Governor Palin has an excellent record on energy issues in Alaska. In Alaska, Governor Palin has suspended the state gas tax.  As governor, Sarah Palin has become a leading figure in the quest to bring America to the brink of energy independence. One of Governor Palins top priorities has been getting a huge natural gas pipeline built from Alaskas vast North Slope oilfields.
