I posted a video of Pfotenhauer getting tore up on CNN here. I’m sure you’ve seen her on the talking head shows if you’ve been paying attention. I’ve been wondering about this woman since I saw her that day. Maybe because I think she looks like a creature from Star Trek. Maybe because I always wonder who McCain surrounds himself with. Reader Wyatt (thank you so much Wyatt) sent me an email with all kinds of links and information on a myriad of things, and included in that email was some information about Pfotenhauer and her background. Anyone who believes that a guy who surrounds himself with the likes of Phil Gramm and Pfotenhauer is a reformer ……..well, I gotta bridge to sell you.

Here’s some info on Pfotenhauer and why Drill Baby Drill sounds real good to her:

Nancy Pfotenhauer: McCain’s Dirty Energy Spokesperson

More on Pfotenhauer and Koch here and her associations here.

Her husband Kurt: As the chief lobbyist for the MBA, Pfotenhauer oversees policy
formation and implementation of legislative and regulatory advocacy on
Capitol Hill in addition to managing the association’s relationships
with industry allies, consumer groups, the GSE’s and policymakers. He
was named one of the top association lobbyists by The Hill magazine
for the last two consecutive years, specifically credited with
building a high quality team of professional lobbyists at MBA.

Yah, that John McCain, he’s gonna clean it up baby! Rigggghhhtttt!
