I’ve been told that I have a lot of energy. The secret is that I use renewable resources. Some days I’m solar powered. Some days I’m wind powered. And some people in this room might think I’m hybrid gas-powered. You’ll just have to guess which it is today.
Meaning of the quote
The quote is saying that Bill Richardson has a lot of energy, but the way he gets that energy is by using renewable resources like solar power and wind power. Some days he has solar-powered energy, some days he has wind-powered energy, and sometimes people think he has a mix of both, like a hybrid car that uses both gas and electricity. The main idea is that he's able to keep his energy levels high by using different types of renewable energy instead of relying on just one type.
