Why, here it is:

In part, he suggested achieving that goal by requiring oil companies to provide at least one ethanol pump at their stations by 2010. He also called for a series of tax credits so consumers and carmakers will ensure 20 percent of all passenger cars and trucks as hybrids as of 2020.

Wonder what ethanol will cost per gallon since it's got about half the energy of gasoline.

Wonder how a tax credit is going to cover the difference in cost between a $15,000 Corolla and a $25,000 whatever hybrid? It's not going to get it done for me.

Maybe Kerry will trade his SUV for a hybrid.

Can't. Remember he said he "doesn't really own it", it belongs to "the family", or some such double talk? Probably the same as Redford saying he can't get rid of his Explorer because he uses it for "exploring". Hypocrites...
