But people don't care enough to check the facts, they just assumed McCain was against it, when really he's a bigger supporter of it then Obama.

Are you sure you can say he is a bigger supporter? Seems like both are pretty much for it the same amount, and the ideas sure didn't benefit McCain any, but he didn't put his feet down in the area and proclaim to be for the coal producers, yet support legislation that can hinder our area.
