There's no question in my mind that democrats are pro-ethanol. That didn't use to be the case. At one time the word "ethanol" made people think large companies like ADM whose lobbying was rewarded by large ethanol subsidies. Now when people think of ethanol, they think about fighting global warming. (We can thank Al Gore.) They also think of reducing dependence on foreign oil. The truth is, ethanol doesn't have many enemies these days. Democrats like corn ethanol because they know it is the path to cellulosic ethanol, the holy grail. Everyone is getting in on the cellulosic ethanol frenzy... even the big oil companies. If you have visited sites like InvestInCellulosicEtha... lately, you will be amazed at the huge technological advances cellulosic ethanol is making these days.
