McConnell Energy Bill Sen Mitch McConnell
"Inspired, perhaps, by Newt Gingrich’s “Drill Here, Drill Now, Pay Less” petition, one group -- led by Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky) -- is trying to do something about the price of gasoline right now.
McConnell -- joined by 42 Senate Republicans -- introduced the “Gas Price Reduction Act of 2008” on June 26. The bill -- which Reid has so far refused a vote -- would open up 14 billion barrels of oil in the Outer Continental Shelf to oil drilling at the option of the states.

More than 90 evangelical leaders representing millions of conservative Christians met in Denver on Tuesday to lament the condition of the religious conservative movement and to conclude they should get behind Sen. John McCain even if they didn’t like everything about him as a candidate.
“The alternative is so bad we must support John McCain,” said Phyllis Schlafly, founder and president of Eagle Forum, adding that the leaders should have held a strategy meeting in 2001 when it was clear Vice President Dick Cheney wouldn’t run for president instead of waiting until four months before the 2008 election.....Evangelical leaders meet and decide to support John McCain
