I don't think there is a whit worth of difference between Clinton and McCain. Both are confirmed "free traders", who will do or say just about anything to increase corporate profits. Both spent most of the last 20 years pandering to corporations. Neither gives a **** about anything but money.
I'm not sure about Obama. There just might be an honest thought, there.
But, considering that both McCain and Clinton are just about as "green" as RoundUp (that kills anything that grows), I think we can safely say that Obama is by far the "greenest". Not because he is so green, but because both opponents are so extremely anti-green.

Allow me just to correct one statement you made about Clinton. She is the only candidate that says the two words that should be music to all of our ears..."electric car". Especially, given the fact gas is almost $4/gallon. She is a proponent for alternative energy (not CORN/ethanol either), and wants to tax the OIL companies. I have only heard biodiesel from Obama, which isn't the only green solution. I do agree with you about McCain. I have not heard anything from him about GREEN which should scare all of us, considering our current REPUBLICAN OIL situation.
