"Holden" here is Holdren, who co-chaired the NCEP in 2005. This is the same John Holdren who wrote in favor of coercive government population-control policies in the 1970s, and who in 2007 suggested government-imposed redistribution as a cure for American exceptionalism. The other adviser mentioned in this paragraph comes from a group which has among its top five donors in 2009 a familiar name — the George Kaiser Foundation. Kaiser, one will recall, is a big Obama bundler — and the main investor in an outfit called Solyndra.
If we're looking for an alternative to the current administration's partnerships with people like Holdren and Kaiser, shouldn't we find a nominee that didn't partner with either on energy policy?

what has happened since signing these regulations into law? According to the EIA, whose latest data is for 2009, Massachusetts’ electrical production dropped 18% in four years, from over 46 billion megawatt hours to 38 billion. International imports, however, went from 697 million megawatt hours in 2006 to 4.177 billion megawatt hours two years later, and to almost 5 billion megawatt hours in 2009, more than twice the amount imported in any of the previous twenty years. -
A couple years back on a whim I started investigating the financial side of Seed Media Group LLC, which publishes Seed, a science magazine in print and online. The company also bankrolls Scienceblogs (Deltoid, PZ Myers, ect), online community, and various ventures, such as museum exhibits, conferences, and international licensing services.
In turn I found that Seed is financially managed by Innovium Media which is traded under the symbol IN on the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX - V") and IH7 on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange ("FWB").
Here's a short stock ticker on Innovium.

It's a good presentation of the stock's performance over the long haul as well as in the short term.
Generally flat to non existent trading activity verging on insolvency, punctuated at intervals by infusions of cash from various "bigs" just in the nick to keep the doors open.
Some of the bigs are named.
MSNBC, GE, NatGeo, some are unnamed.
Betcha those un named sugar daddies are Canadian energy exporters servicing post Romney Massachusetts.

Are we absolutely certain about the origin of Romney's field leading $14.9 mil campaign war chest?
It's always characterized as coming from establishment GOP/status quo insiders.
Alternate theory - maybe Romney's campaign loot is funded in a system similar to the funding for Scienceblogs and the other global warming promoter weblogs, through a shell corp created to confound the origin's true author.
