June 2, 2008
Eric Washburn, a Democratic energy lobbyist, said: "Six months ago, when the bill was being drafted in the Senate, there was more political steam and expectations. There has been backsliding since then, given the high gas prices and recession. There is now more political trepidation about passing this than there was six months ago."

In early 2001, Vice President Dick Cheney tapped Andrew Lundquist, a former labor-crew boss on Alaska's oil-rich North Slope, to head an energy task force. Then as now, the U.S. was the world's biggest oil consumer. Demand was growing, and the nation's once-prodigious oil and gas fields were declining. President Bush and Mr. Cheney, both former oil men, promised to do something about that imbalance.

Is It 1994 All Over Again? Not Just Yet. |
Wall Street Journal (subscription) - New York, NY, USA Monday, June 19, 2006
By George R. Nethercutt, Jr.
Some political pundits are speculating that the Democrats are poised to retake control of the House of Representatives this fall, much like the GOP did in 1994, when it dramatically ended 40 years of Democratic control. As a proud member of 1994's "New Majority" Republican class in the House, I understand the historic dimensions of that victory and the dynamics that made it possible. I also know why neither will apply to the elections in November. Those who predict a Democratic takeover of the House are wrong -- but maybe by just a couple of years.
