Default Re: are online poker players enough to tip the election

The gambling part of the bill will be a non issue. To help defeat him there would have to be those in the media or the Democrats who oppose the bill. While some Dems may not like the attack on liberties none of them are going to argue it was a bad idea and be seen as "on the side" of gabmling interests. Its a non-starter as an issue

Gambling is certainly a pretty minimal issue. The issue of attaching irrelevent riders to important bills is a pretty damned huge issue though. It undermines our democracy in a big way and cannot be tolerated.
