There are more than enough "Up NOrth" Democrats to pass the bill through the Senate.
OTOH, Doyle has no conscience whatsoever. He is counting on a VERY muted business community (he's still NOT increasing taxes) when it comes to a showdown.
In all other regards, remember that Doyle is a power-mad egoist whose interests will prevail over those of the State of Wisconsin.
And he's not afraid to use his State Capitol police to make you understand...
I'm not worried about the bill passing...I'm worried about enough for a veto override...do you think there are enough, since that seems inevitable? We're down here in the "belly of the voter fraud beast" so it's difficult to gauge.
Also, having seen the manipulation job done to get formerly "anti-gambling expansion" demonrats to change their minds on that issue, I have no confidence in an override on this one at all.
