The State legislature has done nothing but give HART and Mayor Caldwell everything they asked for.

When then Governor Lingle was trying to be the voice of reason and put the brakes on this mess, she was soundly excoriated by the State Legislators.  It turns out she was right all along.

If your looking for some to blame for this rail mess, look at Kirk "on time and on budget" Caldwell.  Either he was lying about his intention to keep the project on time and on budget, OR he was lying about his ability to keep the project on time and on budget.

Either way, Mayor Caldwell was lying.  Why don't you ever want to hold him responsible​?
