Pfft, nah- Rendell is sleaze. First, he's no fiscal conservative- he proposed a balanced budget as he was Constitutionally obligated to do and then asked the legislature to vote it down so he could take more time and craft a budget that included large tax increases and growth in spending. The legislature passed his original slashed budget anyhow- so Rendell went on to veto his own budget proposal enabling him to submit a new budget with tax and spending increases.Originally Posted by Don Corleone
