The Republican party and/or other interested parties need to bring an immediate lawsuit to delay this law. The Democrats have no shame or even adherance to the rule of law.
Apparently the 1937 case the governor's depending on (in which the court found that the governor could sign a bill and have it take effect without the 90-day period normally only waived by an emergency preamble passed by the legislature) dealt with a referendum question, not a bill passed by the legislature. Here, the legislature explicity did not pass the emergency preamble.
Sounds to me as if they have a good case. Unfortunately, the rep on the show sounded waaaay too deferential -- more "we just want to say slow down; let's see if it will pass judicial muster first." Maybe it's a tactic in case the gov's listening (to Howie Carr? not bloody likely IMO!), but he didn't sound at all like the typical lawyer, chargin ahead with blood in his eye (even when he has no case).
