Wonder how our beloved presidential nominee voted?

I was going to answer by saying if he stayed true to form he voted against it, but I see TE said he refrained from voting. He is probably out there traversing the country, wasting more and more fuel, pandering to various special interests as I type.

McCain on Energy & Oil... contains some very enlightening reading.

It certainly has been his form to vote against measures that would lead to energy independence but, at least of late, his form has been more the "no vote" route.

2007 voting record

Same votes. Different format. Plus 2006 and 2005

Thanks for posting that, Justa, will read it in a bit.

Oddly, this hasn't hit the financial news yet, though Exxon is/may be asking AK for $800 million for lost leases, but I think that has to do with their new governor trying to show she has balls.

McCain picked a really bad time for a non vote - guaranteed to result in many thousands of same towards him.
