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 series of 11 one-month budgets come to an end with the passage of a 2009 budget.

That should be PM. The extra 12 hours will be crucial!

Rich, do we get a prize if we’re right or is a state budget prize enough?
Comment by jwscott72 Friday, Jul 27, 07 @ 10:43 am
I like South Sider’s take, but I’m going to say Aug 31, 3:00 p.m.

July 31st, 2007 - 11:59 pm (with the clock stopped). Actual time August 1st, 2007 4:00 am

January 10, 2011. The day a new governor’s inauguration takes place.

October 31st seems like an appropriate time.

Rich, does she know you took the pic or was that done with a sneaky lapelle camera or phone?

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.

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.
Comment by Pensioner Friday, Jul 27, 07 @ 2:06 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?

[…] This is a similar exercise to Rich Miller’s QOTD last week, but it uses Inkling’s Really Cool ™ electronic markets technology. […]
