Energy IS a winning issue if framed the correct way. Compare the vast amounts of cheap affordable energy via oil, natural gas and nuclear versus the high cost of “windmills and sunshine”. It’s so easy to paint liberal as idealistic hippies not connected with reality when you say their ideas of energy are “windmills and sunshine”.
I wouldn’t go with oil vs wind.
I’d like to hear someone point out that we have a trade deficit. We buy more from foreign countries than they buy from us. If electricity becomes more expensive in the US, the cost of the goods we make will become more expensive, we won’t sell as many overseas, our trade deficit will increase, and people will lose their jobs.
I personally like tidal power, underwater windmills basically, it’s renewable, “green”, but I expect that Nimby’s won’t like it like they don’t like windmills.
