Inhofe: "No way" cap-and-trade passes Senate

U.S. Sen. James Inhofe, the Oklahoma Republican who has often called global warming "the greatest single hoax perpetrated on the American people," virtually guarantees that the cap-and-trade bill will not pass the Senate.

Speaking on Roger Hedgecock's radio program last night, Inhofe said the bill has 34 firm votes and needs 60.

He said he's confident because the Senate has had five votes on similar climate change-related bills, and each time his side has gained more support.
