		Before an admiring crowd that unconventionally stood up to praise the governor during the press conference that followed the bill signing, with some hissing at this journalist for pressing the governor on her reasoning, Lingle shrugged off the promise she made annually since campaigning in 2002 to hold the line on state tax increases.
