Default Re: Illinois, the tip of the iceberg ... it is cultural AND market-dr

Nate,

I have seen Illinois politics for years. This is not unlike the "Funding Disaster looms for Chicago Schools" scenario. That internet gambling was floated is encouraging. If the racing lobby is behind it, then there is a slight chance .... but not likely this year.

(Gov. Blaze is not too adept at getting crises resolved from what I saw in the quoted reactions, but the inclusion in his proposal is good news.)

Your NIMBY point is a good one, since the purveyors would be established already. .... I do not know if Cahokia Downs still operates, but it would be great if it eventually operates an online site a couple of miles from the Eastern District of Missouri, but doesn't allow St Louis IP players ....
