Reports The Hill:
Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah), who is counterpunching for Republicans during the Democratic convention here, said the 2012 battle over energy policy will be a political win for Mitt Romney.
Some recent polls have shown President Obama well ahead of Romney, the GOP presidential nominee, when voters are asked whom they want in charge of energy policy.
But Chaffetz on Monday said energy is “absolutely” a plus for Romney, especially in Western states where the federal government is a major landowner and most directly regulates development.
