Senate fails to renew the solar tax credit

No tax credits for solar power?

I'm just catching headlines so, hopefully, I'll update with a story link later, but the US Senate has failed to renew the solar tax credit. Now, I'm sure it can be ressurrected in some way, but this appears beyond rational comprehension. Hello, oil closed, after falling a bit, at about $135.00 today. What? Solar credits aren't worth as much PR as windfall profit taxes or gas tax holidays?
