Buying Green Energy Stocks Into The Elections

Since we seem to be on the topic:
I think we’ll see American consumer behavior change abruptly, particularly automotive and driving behavior. This “shock of gas prices” that was supposed to make people wise up once gasoline hit $6 a gallon has now begun at $4. Meanwhile, there is an ever increasing interest in other positive changes in behavior –at least all around me here on the front range of Colorado (excluding Colorado Springs). The few vociferous people who say that ‘peak oil’ is a hoax are dismissed as citizens begin to actually look into the issue.
Of course, I worry that political behavior will trump good reforms and that we’ll be a long time out of this entrapment by big-oil.
Meanwhile, with regard to Republicans being good for the economy, please to look at the actual performance of economies and stock investing as a function of which political party is in power. Review the depredations on Americans produced by Calvin Coolidge (much admired by R Reagan) and the unfortunate H Hoover. Understand the frustrations Republicans felt when a decent and insightful man (Theodore Roosevelt) became president and took on the mega-corps.
By the way, john gordon, I agree completely.
