According to John Broder, things are not looking good for comprehensive energy legislation this session:
The prospect of a comprehensive energy package's emerging from Congress this fall is rapidly receding, held up by technical hurdles and policy disputes between the House and the Senate and within the parties.

We win one, we lose one
This news on the same day that the car companies got an old fashioned ass whiping before a federal judge in their efforts to stop the local efforts to restrict auto emmissions. So don't stick your head in the oven yet, Dave.
Listen, it is time to remind everyone that the last place on earth to change is Washington. Long after the rest of society has shifted and started to change, they are still napping in the past. Always has been, always will be; no matter what the issue.
Finally, Bush is still in the White House. If anything decent survivied conference committee, he would veto it. They have gone to the mattresses in the White House, and instransigence and running out the clock are their watch words.
Back away from that oven door, Dave. We knew this was going to happen - or should have.
