More from the campaign trail…

With less than 60 days until election day, the campaign for president is reaching a fever pitch.  And talk of energy features prominently in each candidate’s stump appearances.

As USA Today’s Paul Davidson and Barbara Hagenbaugh correctly point out, “To win the presidential race, it takes energy.” They detail the approach to the energy crisis this country faces of both candidates and give space to renewable fuels and ethanol near the end.

Over at Reuters, Chuck Abbott reports on the content of a conference call Senator Obama had with leaders of the National Farmers Union.  According to Abbott:

“I’ve long been a strong supporter of the RFS,” Obama said during a brief telephone call to members of the National Farmers Union. “I am strongly committed to advancing biofuels as a key component of reducing our dependence on foreign oil.”

Just a hunch, but I’m guessing we will here a lot more from the candidates about renewable fuels as this campaign heads into the home stretch.  Stay tuned!!!
