Particularly interesting considering how qualified the rumored nominee is.

Corruption? That's your suggestion. Hmmm . . .

He obviously has the knowledge and experience to do the job well and understands their field. Why wouldn't they support him?

But your statement was that Exelon should be pleased with the "return on their investment". This is a clear accusation that their political contributions are resulting in the selection of a cabinet-level official friendly to them who would not otherwise have been chosen. That's the definition of corruption and you're pointing the finger at both the Obama and Clinton administrations when you make the accusation.

Corporate investment in building the careers of cooperative candidates is as American as Apple Pie and bank robbery. Right or wrong?

They call it a "bridge fuel" but I worry that there will be too much "bridge building" (i.e. full speed ahead on extracting natural gas) and not enough work on what should lie on the other side of that metaphorical bridge. In Moniz Obama will clearly have someone who knows his way around Washington and seems to be on board with the "all of the above" energy strategy, but I'd like to see more focus on something other than fossil fuel extraction.

when cleaner options become available. It's all in the national interest, of course.
