Question of the day
Friday, Jul 27, 2007 - Posted by Rich Miller Predict the final adjournment date for this overtime session. *** UPDATE *** I took this photo weeks ago, and have been mulling over how (and if) to use it ever since. I think it might be appropriate for today’s QOTD…

Regrettably the Governor’s scaled back health care plan will not pass. But because it loses by a significant margin he will have a moment of poltical rationality and opt not to prolong the agony of the overtime session.

The 12th of never.

The series of 11 one-month budgets come to an end with the passage of a 2009 budget.
- South Sider - Friday, Jul 27, 07 @ 10:41 am:
That should be PM. The extra 12 hours will be crucial!

- jwscott72 - Friday, Jul 27, 07 @ 10:43 am:
Rich, do we get a prize if we’re right or is a state budget prize enough?
- hollyringo - Friday, Jul 27, 07 @ 10:44 am:
I like South Sider’s take, but I’m going to say Aug 31, 3:00 p.m.
- Grasshopper - Friday, Jul 27, 07 @ 10:49 am:
July 31st, 2007 - 11:59 pm (with the clock stopped). Actual time August 1st, 2007 4:00 am
- anon2 - Friday, Jul 27, 07 @ 10:53 am:
January 10, 2011. The day a new governor’s inauguration takes place.
- anon - Friday, Jul 27, 07 @ 10:56 am:
October 31st seems like an appropriate time.
- Truth - Friday, Jul 27, 07 @ 11:07 am:

- Wumpus - Friday, Jul 27, 07 @ 11:09 am:
Rich, does she know you took the pic or was that done with a sneaky lapelle camera or phone?
- Rich Miller - Friday, Jul 27, 07 @ 11:19 am:
Wumpus, would I do something like that? lol.

- Crimefighter - Friday, Jul 27, 07 @ 11:36 am:
I don’t think it will take an infinity, but I think perhaps it will take a veto overridden budget this year.

I think I predicted Aug. 1 way back in January. Now I’m going to say Aug. 3, before 6 p.m. (they won’t hang around another weekend)
Just wondering, how long has it been since the members last pulled the “stopping the clock” stunt… which I have heard about from those who have been around the Capitol way longer than me.
- ChicagoDem - Friday, Jul 27, 07 @ 11:45 am:
Rich: Is it something you said?

Blagojevich’s program to help the 1.4 million uninsured in Illinois.

July 31 midnight…in the year 2525
- GA Watcher - Friday, Jul 27, 07 @ 11:50 am:
Fall football practice starts at my son’s high school on August 8. Other sports start the week of the 13th. I say the Governor and General Assembly will feel pressure from disgruntled parents and students and knock out a budget by August 15.

No idea on the session, but that shirt is giving me deja vu, over and over again.

I’ll take Die Hard Cub Fans for $1,000, please.
Which is; the answer to the question of:
When will the Cubs win their next World Series?
Is that a Cubs hat she has on? I think I know that look.

Moe: 2006? That was last year.
- Hoosiers can do it, why can't we? - Friday, Jul 27, 07 @ 3:24 pm:
It will actually be a 2-parter: a six-month bare bones budget approved sometime around the evening of Aug. 5th, and a supplemental budget that will be approved just before November to finish the year and cary out a reduced version of Rod’s combo platter.

Who cares? But what a great picture!

We’re waiting for your next White Sox post…a lot of speculation on the future of Guillen and Williams.

So sorry, I’m a state worker that’s stuck in a time warp. Is it really 2007?
