The Blue Water Wind deal is dead for now. How nice. And how anti-climatic after all the hard work and effort to get that deal agreed to in the first place. Hopefully new financing and investors can be found in the coming year or two so that the deal can be revived.

In the fight for the Republican nomination, if only scientists can somehow combine Gingrich, Perry, Bachmann and Santorum into one ultra conservative super hero, that candidate would sweep every primary and caucas en route to the nominate.
