So why isn’t he supporting the cap and trade program? Does he not have the courage of his convictions?

His story is that the regional cap and trade program as it exists does not work. However he signed a bill to tax payer $$ to subsidize off shre windmills:

"The act mandates a percentage of electrical power sold in New Jersey eventually be generated by offshore windmills, and offers a mix of financial assistance and $100 million in tax credits to lure companies to build the turbines in Paulsboro and get the project underway."

"A few months ago, I was at the Jersey Shore talking about my renewed feeling regarding no offshore drilling in New Jersey and also that I did not want liquefied natural gas off the state of New Jersey’s coast, either," said Christie."
