text: Coghill is planning a radio ad to explain his position — that using the Permanent Fund's earnings is reasonable, as long as lawmakers keep pursuing budget cuts at their current pace. But, he added: "I honestly don't know how people will accept that."   
  He is glad to keep the conversation about SB91, and his voting for cutting the dividend just like the governor did and using "a part of" the permanent fund for government.  
  When is Coghill going to defend his vote in support of SB21 and the oil tax giveaway that promised a million barrels a day"?   
  His only excuse will be "nobody saw this oil price crash coming".   That`s no defense of a failure to protect the state`s "downside" which had been brought up by the minorities in both houses.  Just like Coghill`s failure to even allow a vote to act to cancel the governor`s actions he took on behalf of the state`s evident severely weakened fiscal health, in large part due to SB21 and all that "tax free" "new" oil and gas..
