What are Romney’s plans??

I’ve said before that Romney’s my 3rd choice for nominee, but give the guy a break. Here’s his energy plan outline from his website:

*****

The first step will be a rational and streamlined approach to regulation, which would facilitate rapid progress in the development of our domestic reserves of oil and natural gas and allow for further investment in nuclear power.

•Establish fixed timetables for all resource development approvals
•Create one-stop shop to streamline permitting process for approval of common activities
•Implement fast-track procedures for companies with established safety records to conduct pre-approved activities in pre-approved areas
•Ensure that environmental laws properly account for cost in regulatory process
•Amend Clean Air Act to exclude carbon dioxide from its purview
•Expand NRC capabilities for approval of additional nuclear reactor designs
•Streamline NRC processes to ensure that licensing decisions for reactors on or adjacent to approved sites, using approved designs, are complete within two years

How do you know this is a plan he would carry out, his entire political history is one of spin and flip flops.
There is not a position he has maintained even the slightest bit of constancy on.
