Yaaaaaaawn. Just booked flights and hotel rooms for Vegas in April. That’s money I’d be using for gaming right here if i had the opportunity. Enough already. Open a Casino so I can game or fold to the killjoys and harpies and stop talking about it. I’m tired of the talk, I WANT TO GAME ALREADY!!!!!!

Its not about being against gambling. Its about the economic benefit or hardship to the community. Its about more than your joy. If there were studies you could trust showing economic benefit, I’m sure Lynne would be all for it.
Have fun in Vegas.

It’s a damned shame Sal “The Missing Link” DiMase gets off so much on philibustering the Governor. We the People elected him because we were tired of the useless gridlock on Beacon hill and sent a man full of piss, vinegar and vision to put right what Weld, Celucci, Jabba, and Romney had managed to put wrong. Now DiMase is getting his jollies by standing in the way of progress. He doesn’t seem to have anyone’s interest in mind other than that of his huge ego. Let Patrick do his job for Christ’s sake. If nobody likes it let them elect another 16 year string of misfit republicans for Dennis Franz to play good cop bad cop with.
