Newt wants the CAFE Standards abolished.
For that alone he is my choice for POTUS.

You need to separate your anger for the GM bailout from the Volt. It is a very nice vehicle. A much better car in every way than the Prius “clown car.” You might even venture onto the web and find out what owners think. One guy right here in my neighborhood has both a Prius and a Volt and says that they Volt is better in every respect and he commutes in in 150 miles a day!

Instead of buying the Chevy Volt gas-electric hybrid ($46,000) that catches fire spontaneously while parked in your garage, you can spend $20,000 less and buy the gasoline Chevy Cruze and looks nearly the same. Oh, wait, the Chevy Cruze also suffers from engine bay fires. At least General Motors was consistent when it came to engineering the self-destruction features into the Volt and Cruze — and they do work.

Those are all valid points & do advance the argument against the Volt. What I was trying to say is that criticisms that imply that the Volt is a pure EV aren't helpful. At best, they simply set up straw men, which the other side (envirowhackos) can easily knock down. At worst, they are the like the disingenuous arguments I usually associate with leftists.
