Colorado is, like every other state, short of money compared to what we thought we would have for this year and next year. It happens, and we'll balance the budget one way or the other.

What do you suppose, though, will be the most controversial bills of the year?

By controversial, I mean, what bill proposals will drive stories in the papers, on the radio and on TV.

Two stand out right now as barn burners:

1. banning cell phone usage while driving - or some derivation there of.
2. allowing full strength beer to be sold in convenience stores and grocery stores.

What else will we see? Something on guns, unions, or same-sex marriage.

I'll try to write on all of them as we move forward.
