Thomas R. Carper: “bipartisan solutions are lasting solutions.”

Well, there is a good compromise out there, and I think if we are smart and don't give up today, we will find it.

Given how important this obviously is, my only regret is that we didn't have an opportunity to talk about it 24 hours ago.

I think the greatest way that the Commission can have an impact on that is probably through our rate-making authority.

Thank you for your passion, and I would ask that we spend the rest of this day dealing with this.
