Gov. Charlie Crist announced two major initiatives Monday to strengthen alternative energy in Florida: A $182 million deal for a garbage-to-electricity plant in Tallahassee and a pledge to encourage Congress to end an import tax on Brazilian ethanol.
If we can get Crist to continue to move to the left on issues like this, Florida might actually rebound from the horror the Jeb years gave us. Some of our Democratic legislators should be as liberal on some of these issues as Crist is. Some of them are afraid that if they act too liberal they'll lose. Crist's approval ratings seem to disagree.
