2 of 3 congressman most responisible for the internet gaming ban are gone for good. 1 (Kyl) barely won reelection. This in an age where over 90% of incumbents are reelected. Seems the only way to lose your seat in Washington is to try to ban internet gaming or proposition 16 year olds boys over the internet.
Yet the national media still has not picked up on this. This election was about our frustration with the Iraq war, yet Jim Leach was one of the few Republicans to vote AGAINST the Iraq war. Yet he is out.
Frist snuck the anti-gaming bill in without a vote, hoping to secure support to run for president. He was forced to drop out almost 2 years before the freakin election.
Kyl had a huge lead which kept dropping as more and more people realized he was a key figure behind the internet gaming ban.
Perhaps there is a new "3rd rail" in Washington to replace Social Security reform. The national press needs to let congressman know that if you mess with what people do in the privacy of their homes, you will soon be at home.
