28. Your link is penned by an Entergy-Vermont Yankee employee ...
who is, apparently, a hearty proponent of nuclear energy.

Actually, the story went something like this: another company was slated to buy Vermont Yankee, and then at the eleventh hour Entergy got the deal--after making a campaign contribution to Gov. Dean. (They did pay a lot of money for it.)

So ... if Entergy is a problem for Hillary, it was a far greater problem for Dean: he took contributions for the company and sold them the nuclear power plant.

My purpose in bringing this up is to show how people will use any information they can find to slam one candidate, while ignoring information (sometimes far more direct and damning) that relates to a candidate they like. Just saying.
