NYT: Obama’s EPA Decision Based on Campaign Politics

Commentary Magazine  "Obama’s decision on the proposed EPA smog regulations actually has a lot in common with his decision on the Keystone XL construction.

"This is unnerving, if only because it shows three years into Obama’s term it’s still difficult to know for sure where he stands on many issues. Keystone XL is a prime example. If he wins a second term and isn’t constrained by election politics, will he support its construction or not? At this point, it’s anybody’s guess."
