A Washington Post poll in the last 24 hours indicated that environmental issues are a top priority for only about 8% of the voters in the 2016 presidential election -- placing it around 4th or 5th place among major issues.

Who is the dim bulb in the Democratic leadership who decided to decimate the coal industry -- and put a reliably Democratic state like Pennsylvania in play for this election -- over an issue that only 8% of the public really cares about?

And of those 8% what fraction think it is important because environmental regulations are destroying their homes and business - like the threats of fines and imprisonment if you throw a couple of shovel fulls of dirt into the "wetlands" in the middle of your property.

I stand shoulder to shoulder with any envorinmentalist who will return Washington DC to its original state - an pestilential malarial undrained swamp.

If that’s true, that 8% is mostly hard-core leftists. I can’t believe that even “mainstream” Democrats have it as even a “high” priority.

Bring on Al Gore. Let him waste her time and money preaching only to the choir.
