The January 27 blog “Timing Dubious in Push to Raise FasTracks Taxes” suggested that area mayors were exhibiting political tone-deafness by promoting a tax hike to pay for completion of the FasTracks system amid the worst economic downturn in years. But not so fast.

Apparently, their hearing isn’t entirely shot after all.
