Here’s a forecast

The negotiations over the $20.2 billion, ‘08 budget are the only thing holding this final day of the legislative session together.

But think about this: The Senate is siding with Gov. Sonny Perdue, who wants a combined ‘07 and ‘08 budget, now that the mid-year has been vetoed.

Which means the Senate has no incentive to reach a settlement on the budget. Our prediction: At some point, one side or the other will suddenly gavel this place away, so that lawmakers can go home and wait for Perdue’s summons to bring them back.
