Will Greens Drop Blue Or Go Yellow...
Tom Nelson (Free subscription) | 09/16/2009
Will Greens Drop Blue Or Go Yellow? As cap and trade gets pushed back further and further into next year (or not at all), the blue-green alliance will be strained greatly. So it will be interesting to see if the Greens stand up for their beliefs or meekly go along with unions.
