You may have missed the McCain-Palin town hall that took place in Grand Rapids on Wednesday. It certainly wasn't talked about on television a whole lot. So here is what the country's leading energy expert had to say about domestic energy production:

Quoted: But when asked how she would help keep any new domestic oil produced in the United States, Palin gave a less-than-well-articulated non-answer:

Quoted: "Oil and coal? Of course, it's a fungible commodity and they don't flag, you know, the molecules, where it's going and where it's not. But in the sense of the Congress today, they know that there are very, very hungry domestic markets that need that oil first," Palin said. "So, I believe that what Congress is going to do, also, is not to allow the export bans to such a degree that it's Americans that get stuck to holding the bag without the energy source that is produced here, pumped here. It's got to flow into our domestic markets first."
