The Democrats in the legislature once again agree to dip into the CBR. That's not really the problem. 

The problem is that they once again let the majority committee chairs virtually exclude them from the legislative process during the regular session. Bills they proposed never made it out of committees. Amendments they proposed were disregarded without a hearing. They had the CBR leverage to wield all through the regular session; unless they're dopes they knew this was coming, and yet they never took advantage of what little clout they had.
