Making Progress?

A key Colorado Senate Democrat hints that his party will give ground on the budget plan:

Sen. Peter Groff, D-Denver, said the limit on government growth will be lowered to address Owens’ concern that it is meaningless. Democrats are hoping to win Owens’ support….

“We’re going to have a cap where we’d see refunds in the near future,” he said.

Is this making progress? Is this hope for a genuine acceptable solution to the budget crunch? Or just more posturing? The proof will be in the pudding.
