No nuclear cars

The Atlantic's Matthew Yglesias offers this bit of energy policy snark:

Adam Blinick, upset at John Edwards' anti-nuclear stance, asserts that "nuclear power is the only environmentally friendly, economic, and efficient source of energy that can help the U.S. wean itself off foreign oil." We'll be weaned off the dastardly power, perhaps, with nuclear powered cars?

No, but there might be nuclear power plants that would generate electricity that could be used by hybrid or electric cars.
