The 5 stages of state budget delay

by @ 17:49 on July 30, 2007. Filed under Miscellaneous.

Steve Baas, the government affairs director for MMAC and former spokesman for former Assembly Speakers Scott Jensen and John Gard, has a great piece of what to expect in the next weeks of the budget impasse over at WisOpinion. They are:

Stage 1 – Denial
Stage 2 – Anger
Stage 3 – Bargaining
Stage 4 – Depression
Stage 5 – Acceptance

The language of “bargaining” is invariably applied only to the Republican/conservative half of the “impasse”. Don’t believe me? I know it’s not the budget, but take a look at the attempted hammering of Scott Walker on the $93.5 million in “new” transportation funds the Journtinel and the Milk Carton want spent on choo-choos.

Now, go read the rest of the piece.
