Txt msg from a high level democratic aid
I know that I am just telling you what you already know but I have a friend who is a high level aid who is briefing the senator that he works for on defense issues... the senator that he works for is a BIG deal.
He sent me the following text message today in response to one that I sent him asking about new events:
"if it gets in the DoD bill you are totally screwed. They cant amend it without fillibustering it first and nobodys going to block funding for body armour in order to protect gamblers when we are only six weeks away from the election"
he also said that there is no way that the senator that he works for would be willing to block this legislation EVEN THOUGH the senator is in favor of online gambling.
things are looking pretty bleak...
