Romney Believes In Global Warming

Erica Grieder applauds:

Mr Romney himself has already been on record as being worried about [climate change], and the only reason he would back off that belief in the context of a Republican primary would be that he is trying to gin up votes among a sceptical primary electorate. In standing by his professed belief as the campaign gets underway, he is resisting (in this case, at least) the incentive to flip-flop, and while that shouldn't be a cause for celebration, it is.

David Frum asks why Pawlenty's straight-talk on ethanol subsidies was widely cheered while Romney's global warming truth-telling has mostly been ignored.
