The non-partisan CLCV

I keep getting emails from Susan Rose, CEO of the California League of Conservation Voters.  Most of them ask me to take some action that I agree with.  The rest ask for money to support what they are doing.  They all claim to be non-partisan.  But, if the CLCV is non-partisan, have they ever endorsed a candidate who is NOT a Democrat?

I ask this question because I don’t think that the Democratic Party anywhere is going to pay the attention to the environment that we deserve until Democrats start losing elections for that failure. There are some who start off in the right direction: Jared Huffman, Fran Pavley, but in the end they get out of their special interest and just join the rest of the crowd.  

I have even seen Sierra Club endorsements of a Green, but not CLCV. What would it take for the CLCV to actually endorse a Green?  Maybe, is they made such an endorsements and backed it up with publicity, it would actually have an effect on Democratic Policy.
