But Doyle isn't expected to introduce his budget repair bill until early next week — a bill lawmakers say could include a shift of hundreds of millions of dollars from the fund used to build and maintain the state's roads. (Read: spend money on WEAC-approved stuff, like WEAC salaries/bennies.)
Darth wants to "borrow" $300 million from the transportation fund, then float bonds to replace the money. That should be fun to watch, in the worst credit environment since....oh....1930 or so.
There are alternatives:
