Republican Senate candidate Carly Fiorina has aggressively campaigned this election on her opposition to comprehensive clean energy and climate legislation. Her campaign rhetoric has apparently attracted some unique donors; Fiorina has received about $63,000 in donations this year from Appalachian coal-mining interests. Much of the money has come from Robert Murray, CEO of Murray Energy in Ohio, who dismisses global warming as "hysterical global goofiness."
