Remember, Tom was the only one to vote against the deficit budget this year. That deficit is actually going to end up as a surplus, mostly from higher taxes that are coming in from gas prices.

Be that as it may, 2/3rds of the legislature has to approve the budget at this point. 2/3rds of the legislature has to approve higher taxes. 2/3rds of the legislature can override a veto of the budget.

Mid year corrections would not be subject to legislature review. Actual corrections can be made to bring the budget back into line.

That's why Tom supports it, even with the poison 10 billion credit card. Without it, there will be no control over the money in California.

Remember - over sixty percent voted to ban gay marriage in this state. Two thirds of the state senate voted for changing the law to bring in gay marriage. There is no fear in Sacramento. Arnold blew it by not using his celebrity at the start, by his trying to 'play fair' and 'work with others.' These folks don't work with others.
