NatGas is bringing sexy back.

Regardless of who wins the White House (McCain,Clinton,Obama). The next President will likely pass some sort of carbon emissions tax. You may be wondering "what does this have to do with natgas?"

The USA has as much natgas as we have coal. With the new carbon taxes coal will become more expensive making the clean burning NatGas SEXY. (especially in electricity production). Green energy is still needs more work, nuclear takes 10-15 years to build and you have the "not in my backyard" issues, and coal is about to become a lot more expensive. With high oil prices it makes to produce natgas domestically instead of shipping it halfway around the world.

Bullish on SD (Little risky because it's a small company. But, they have great leadership)
Bullish on XTO: (they produce Natgas cheaper than anyone else)
Bullish on KMP (have to transport it somehow. They also have an awesome CEO. Makes a salary of just $1 per year, the rest is paid in stock dividends. In essence if he doesn't make money for the shareholders he doesn't get paid. But, he is getting paid a lot recently. Shouldn't you?
