Opponents seeking to block the $900 million project include Democratic Sen. Ted Kennedy, whose family's Hyannisport compound is in sight of it. Kennedy's brother, former president John F. Kennedy, created the Cape Cod National Seashore in 1961.

After several years of intense lobbying on both sides, many Cape Cod residents are deeply divided as Congress approaches a vote as early as next week that could effectively block the what would be the first U.S. offshore wind farm.


We'll soon know just how serious Democrats are about reducing our dependency on foreign oil. This wind farm will generate enough electricity to serve 650,000 homes. That's a lot of $75/barrel crude.
