Some of the McCainiacs I know are worried that the GOP nominee is going to throw away the energy issue by signing on to the so-called Gang of 10 energy compromise effort. (It would seemingly allow expanded oil drilling, greatly expand biofuel programs, increase dough for nuclear fuel research, and increase taxes on oil companies.)
- My Capitol Hill sources don't think there is going to be a compromise with broad support.
- Team McCain doesn't think there is going to be a compromise with broad support.
- If a workable compromise came together, he would likely vote against it.
