Chris "swing and a miss" Nelder is the tone-deaf one here, as usual. The piublic is actually solidly behind Obama's "all of the above" energy policy, to include fracking and off-shore drilling.
http://vote4energy.org/2012/03/19/poll-shows-public-support-for-increased-u-s-oil-and-gas-production/As to waiting for the oil and gas industry die-off - there isn't much doubt here as to which will last longer - the American oil and gas renaissance or the histrionics of Mr. Nelder. Like his partner in wild and wooly theories, Matt Simmons, Mr. Nelder will likely see his "green energy" fantasies drowning in a sea of shale energy for the rest of his life. I wish him a long and healthy rant.
