APC govs may reject Tambuwal

Governors elected on the platform of the All Progressives Congress may queue behind Gen. Muhammadu Buhari(retd.) as the preferred presidential candidate of the party for the 2015 election, SUNDAY PUNCH has learnt.

The governors are suspecting that those asking the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Aminu Tambuwal, to pick the presidential form are enemies of the party.

Two of the governors, who spoke with our correspondent on Friday and Saturday respectively, said they would work for Buhari.

One of them, who called our correspondent on Friday evening, said there was no way he and his colleagues would support Tambuwal.

He said he and his colleagues were not worried with Tambuwals picking of the partys presidential form.

He said, We are not worried with his picking presidential form. Hes not going far.

We expected him to focus on him becoming the governor of Sokoto State. Hes a good product anyway, but hes not ripe for Presidency now. He cant defeat President Goodluck Jonathan.

Another governor, whos from the North, said Tambuwals entrance could be a ploy by pro-Jonathan sympathisers within the party who he said, could be looking for a weak candidate that the president could easily over-run.

He said he and some leaders within the party were informed the national leadership of the party and the Presidency were scared of a Buhari challenge.

He said this could be the main reason the pro-Jonathan people within the party could have sold a dummy to Tambuwal, deceiving him that hes young and would be liked by all.

Liberals buoyed by Warrens promotion

Liberals have high hopes that Sen. Elizabeth Warren's (D-Mass.) promotion to Democratic leadership will give them more sway in the next Congress.

Under pressure to shake things up after a disastrous midterm election cycle, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) this week named Warren to an advisory role where shell serve as a liaison to groups on the left.

While Reid and Sen. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) will still have the reins on political strategy, Warren's appointment has been seen a sign that Democrats might move in a more populist direction.

TJ Helmstetter, director of candidate communications support at the Progressive Change Campaign Committee (PCCC), said Warren's message "is exactly the direction the party needs to take in order to win again."

"Warren's appointment to Senate leadership is a reflection of the leadership she already exerts among the party faithful," Helmstetter said. "No matter who runs for president in 2016, they'll need to adopt Elizabeth Warren's economic populist agenda of big, bold ideas in order to excite voters and win."

Warren has had somewhat of a mixed record in garnering support from her party on high-profile policy initiatives.

Democrats were wary of endorsing the bill she introduced with Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) that would reinstate the 1999 repeal of the Glass-Steagall banking law, which required commercial banks to split their investment banking operations.

Warren argues that President Clinton's repeal of Glass-Steagall contributed to the financial meltdown.

But on the issue of student debt, Democrats rallied behind Warrens proposal to cut student loan rates by raising taxes on the wealthy. The legislation failed to pass the Senate, but Democrats used it as a rallying cry on the stump during the midterm campaign.

A Warren adviser said the leadership position will give her an opportunity to advocate on policies and priorities that she cares about from her seat in the weekly, closed-door leadership meetings.

Wynnes shocking blunder

TORONTO-

Every time the Kathleen Wynne Liberals are called on the carpet over skyrocketing electricity prices in Ontario, they go into their patented, but we eliminated coal routine.

Meaning they eliminated polluting coal-fired electricity and replaced it with clean energy sources such as solar and wind power.

So today, lets expose this claim for the nonsense it is.

When Dalton McGuinty and the Liberals came to power in 2003, they promised to close all of Ontarios coal-fired electricity generating stations, which at the time were supplying 25% of Ontarios power needs, by 2007.

That was completely unrealistic and the Liberals didnt in fact eliminate coal until this year.

Meanwhile, in 2014, wind and solar power provide about 4% of Ontarios electricity.

So even for the Liberals whose math skills are not the greatest, as evidenced by the fact theyve doubled Ontarios debt to almost $300 billion since coming to power in 2003 it ought to be obvious you cant replace 25% of the system with 4% of it.

Beyond that, theres a whole other problem with Liberal claims wind and solar power were used to replace coal.

That is, wind and solar power cant replace coal because, unlike coal, they cannot provide base load power to the grid on demand.
