Is the Obama appalachia strategy the right one?

Answering your question from the "Appalachians", I can say in my opinion, that it will hurt him. Coal is a very big part of the economy here, and when he talks about environmental issues where coal is concerned, it turns a lot of people off. Coal is the way of life here and it has been for generations, and quite frankly, our area is the "Saudi Arabia" of coal. Has anyone ever heard of coal to oil technology?People here have a long memory.
