Told that state utility regulators are wary of Congress’ plans to railroad through new interstate transmission lines, Sen. Reid said “Whatever we pass at the federal level trumps all that.”

That marks Washington’s second shot across the bow of state authorities in as many weeks. The stimulus package included provisions that would condition federal money to states re-writing their utility laws to favor energy efficiency. <<<

They really intend to run right over the rest of us.
