Sorry ChicagoSean, my Black Hawks rattled your Sabres.

This is pretty good

Newt had a good debate. How can one tell? Polls. Newt probably picks up 17% if you assume that Santorum’s social conservatives aren’t going to Mitt, and the 4% backing Rick Perry aren’t going Mitt. Paul’s backers are booking flights on Virgin Space Travel so they can go to Mars and vote.

Obama rejects the pipeline. This doesn’t surprise me. Obama cares more about green energy than he does about jobs. Think about it, he has spent billions on green energy start ups that failed, and used the EPA to hamper any other energy efforts. I bet he smiled when the BP oil spill happened. Green energy is a nice idea. Certain things will come to fruition someday. But the private market ought to determine how assets get allocated. In all the green deals I have seen, without government subsidies they are cash flow negative. They promise X amount of energy, and deliver .10x.

Jerry Yang leaves $YHOO. About time. They should clear out anyone with an emotional tie to the company. Then figure out who the best partner is. $GOOG is kicking their butt.

Why is corn tanking in price? ($ZC_F) Haven’t really ended ethanol yet. Wait until that happens!

Hanging in the city all day today
