In the past several weeks, we have heard how Obama’s war on coal was hurting families in Kentucky and West Virginia. Why did conservative bloggers and news organizations leave Ohio coal miners out of the mix of people hurt by Obama’s war on coal?

So you have the Republican being celebrated as a friend of labor, over the Democrat.

And we lived to see it.

My, my, isn’t it interesting that the UMWA home site isn’t a campaign ad for the usurper like it was in 2008.

[Mitt Romney today stood in front of eastern Ohioans seemingly straight out of the mine — hard hats, smudged faces, and blue and gray uniforms — as he accused President Obama of “waging war” on coal.]

This is a powerful, vivid image in a state Romney must win. No doubt it will become a campaign commercial.

Romney has the right idea but, again as usual, he’s wimpy about. It’s not just coal mining, it’s coal fired power plants that are on his hit list.

There is even an interview with him saying “oh, we won’t stop anyone from opening a new coal fired power plant, we’ll just make it so expensive they’d go bankrupt.”

Get that interview Mitt. Make a commercial out of it and play in WV, VA, OH, PA, etc. Show the trend of not only higher gas prices but higher electrical rates.

Then MOCK the left by saying, “with Obama attacking all means of electrical production, where do we plug in the electric cars?” Point out solar and wind cannot POSSIBLY generate enough power to run a toaster.
