I thought he said he "balanced the budget"?

In fact, I am pretty sure that Doyle claimed on a number of occasions that he "balanced the budget".

Gov. Jim Doyle and the Legislature will have to close a $1.6 billion deficit as they develop the next two-year budget, according to a new report released Monday.

State budget short $1.6 billion

More on this later.

This is the projected deficit for the next two years. The last budget was balanced.

The truth is, Republican or Democrat governor, the budgets only balance on paper not in the real world.
