Comparing Gore's talk to Presidential-surrogate Energy debate at MIT

I am glad that the Presidential-surrogate Energy debate at MIT a couple weeks ago (another fun event to attend, but this one put on by the MIT Energy Club) was done by Woolsey and Grumet (representing McCain and Obama, respectively). They both have a really good handle on what needs to be done to move things in the right direction energy-wise, within the realm of the possible and politically feasible, which Gore didn't seem to embrace as strongly. I am looking forward to having one of them be advisors to the white house. Too bad McCain would probably ignore most of the good ideas that Woolsey puts forward, based on his voting record. Obama seems to buy into what Grument had to say though. Here's hoping this works out for the good.

If you'd like to see the debate yourself, it's posted on TechTV:
