The Next Senator From California? Getting His Street Cred

I'm not really sure I want to post this, but if I don't, I will get a gazillion notes from readers sending me the link.

So, I will post the link for archival purposes, but I really don't have much to say about it. The article speaks for itself.

The Financial Post is reporting:
An anti-Keystone XL pipeline commercial funded by President Barack Obama supporter and hedge-fund billionaire Tom Steyer confirms what many Canadians have long suspected — American anti-oil activists have gone mad.

The real question folks should be asking is this: what does Tom Steyer hope to gain from this? The wikipedia entry probably provides as good an answer as any:
It was reported in January 2013 that Steyer might be named as a replacement for Energy Secretary Steven Chu or that he might run for Dianne Feinstein's Senate seat in 2019. Asked whether he would accept an appointment to be Energy Secretary, Steyer said yes.
