TWILIGHT OF THE GREENS

[Geee]

Human Events:

When compiling your list of 2014 Election Losers, don’t forget to include Democrat environmentalist sugar daddy Tom Steyer, who shoveled out a ton of cash – he bought the Democrat Party retail, and they were so dazzled by his money that they didn’t bother to hide the fact that his purchase was exactly what Democrats spend a great deal of time falsely accusing the Koch Brothers of doing. Special interests and billionaires who buy elections are super awesome when Democrats get to cash the checks.

 

Steyer has very little to show for his vast expenditures. The Wall Street Journal celebrated his defeat with one of the more acerbic editorials they’ve published recently:

 

If you want proof that money doesn’t buy elections, Mr. Steyer and his fellow green comrades are it.

Environmental groups including NextGen spent $85 million to support President Obama ’s green agenda, especially his regulations targeting coal for extinction.
