 Watch for a showdown this September 27th between those who want an endless fossil future -- an extremely well-financed bunch led by Newt Gingrich -- and a coalition of grass roots activists running the Green Jobs Now campaign.

 The video captures the choice in this fight succinctly.

  In one corner, weighing in with the blood and burden of 150 years of the fossil fuel era, wearing a business suit, is Newt Gingrich. And in the other corner, almost weightless with the audacity of hope, wearing work clothes and holding a caulk gun, is....Patrick!

 Have a look at the video yourself. The showdown reaches a head this Saturday, September 27th.
