BP and the public outrage

According to Politico's Mike Allen:

President Barack Obama and his Democratic allies plan a major new push for a broad global warming bill, fueled in part by public outrage over the BP disaster, according to top aides.

“The oil spill is intensifying the public’s desire for clean energy investments and increased regulation on corporate polluters,” (wrote Joel Benenson) on behalf of the League of Conservation Voters.

I'll be interested to see if President Obama incorporates any of Dan Esty's Plan B. It wouldn't surprise me.
