It’s 11:30 a.m. and word just arrived from Gov. Jodi Rell’s press office, minus Spokesman Chris Cooper, whose last day was yesterday as he took the retirement Incentive Package, that the governor has officially vetoed the Democrats’ truncated budget that was voted mostly along party lines last week,. It’s anticlimactic, because for our purposes, the battling bipartisan budgeteers are back, again, at the Governor’s Residence, talking compromises. About the only thing we’re sure they agree on is a ban on statements on whatever progress they may be making.
