Default OT--Sleazy politics...Dems caught TRYING TO EXTEND budget crisis

See today's LA Times:

Here are some excerpts:

Los Angeles Assemblywoman Jackie Goldberg and others discussed holding up
the budget to dramatize the consequences and build support for a ballot
initiative that would make it easier to raise taxes.

Fabian Nunez, also of Los Angeles, agreed. "If you don't have a budget, it
helps Democrats," he said.

"Excuse me, guys, you can be heard outside," an unidentified staff member
said.

"Oh [expletive], [expletive]," Goldberg said.

This sure sounds very similar to all of the hand-wringing that's going on in
Dem circles across the country as they sit hoping the economy doesn't
improve before November '04.
