Tom Steyer in The New Republic

On Energy & Oil: AdWatch: Do even more with endless supply of wind and sun

"I'm Tom Steyer," he says. "With bold leadership and an endless supply of wind and sun, we can do even more. The goal is 50 percent by 2030."

He concludes the ad by saying, "So what are we waiting for?"

We're waiting for Steyer to announce his run, apparently.

On Energy & Oil: CPAC panel discussion: "What Tom Steyer Won't Tell You"

For proof, consider this year's Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) at Maryland's National Harbor: An entire panel was devoted to "What Tom Steyer Won't Tell You" about climate change.

Murray Energy claimed that "Tom Steyer, Al Gore and their ilk fabricate about global warming and now climate change."

"Tom Steyer is a billionaire based in California," the Institute for Liberty said. "He argues for greater regulation on his competitors and forces to get subsidies for his green energy boondoggles."

Meanwhile, no one seemed too concerned with how Murray Energy stands to benefit economically from fighting climate change regulations. They were too busy demonizing Steyer--literally. One fifth-year CPAC attendee told me after the panel, "Tom Steyer is the devil."
