Right now, the House is in another marathon debate, a day after ultra-marathon debates on prescription drug and Vermont Yankee bills.

This time it's about renewable energy. The House is voting whether to concur with changes the Senate makes and House Republicans are fighting the bill. It won't last as long as yesterday's debate as the roll call has jut begun.

Meanwhile downstairs, word is that progress is being made toward the signing of tax and budget conference committee reports. That could put the 2010 budget on the Senate floor later this afternoon.

Adjournment? 2 p.m. Saturday sounds good to me.
