Revenue Enhancements

The Governator is changing his story again. Now he's for taxes. Kinda. If we call them something else.

"We should not get caught up in what something is called," he said. "That doesn't bring anyone any healthcare. It doesn't bring any education. . . . What we need to do is fix problems. Let's just put everything on the table and not debate over the definitions."

BUT

Republicans still oppose a tax hike by any definition.

Do they really think that the general fund budget -- currently at $103 billion -- can be balanced with only spending cuts? "That's our goal," says Senate GOP Leader Dick Ackerman of Irvine.

"Is it going to happen? I can't tell you that."
