Counting the pennies: Federal Budget night 13th May 2008

Well, the media is locked up with Federal Treasurer Wayne Swan's 2008-09 budget documents and the rest of us wait for the 7.30pm kick-off tonight.
The NSW North Coast which was promised a bag full of goodies by Rudd & Co. during the election campaign is holding its breath.
In the Page electorate alone a cool $26 million plus in promises need to be confirmed by the Treasurer before the end of his speech.
 
The Treasurer's speech and the budget transcript will be here from 7.30pm onwards.
The Sydney Morning Herald will have live coverage and analysis here from 7.30pm onwards.
