		McKay and Senate budget writers had been warning for weeks that, whatever others might do, they wouldn't place tax cuts ahead of more important things.

	State: McKay stays the course on tax plan
		It now seems more certain than ever that if he is to win any tax reform, McKay will have to use all his clout and play hardball with Bush and Feeney on the pivotal issues remaining before the Legislature: the budget, reapportionment and creation of the new chief financial officer position in the Cabinet.
		McKay wants to ask voters to lower the tax rate from 6 to 4.5 percent, keeping exemptions for groceries, rent and medicines, and reducing business taxes on electricity.
		But McKay has been hampered by a series of factors both institutional and personal, and he has made some questionable moves of his own.
