In the vice presidential debate, Senator Biden said he and Obama support building so-called “clean” coal plants.  Governor Palin, in perhaps her only factual statement of the evening, pointed out that he had said the opposite in a rope line at a rally.  And indeed he did, a few weeks ago.

C’mon, Joe, I liked you better when you recognized that coal is coal and it’s dirty. “Clean coal,” a textbook example of an oxymoron, is another example of chasing one last fix (or three) before we check into rehab.

That said, just win this thing for us.
