"what is or isnt feasible" - you will never know until you try.

Its your (our) position that should be either/or: an either/or ultimatum - exempt online poker (and other skill based, non-house games) from this proposal or we will support the efforts of your opponents to kill it in its entirety. Other gaming interests that might help will also fall in the skill based, non-house category or they will be covered federally (horse racing can already get a separate exemption, fantasy sports fall in the skill based camp, and sports betting is illegal as a matter of federal law). There really is no online slots constituency, so dont worry about that, indeed, thats the bone to give him and the gambling is evil/addictive folks.

My best read of the situation is that casino gambling is a close call in MA, politically. If the Gov. really wants his casinos he cant afford to offend a significant segment of the population that would otherwise support his proposal.

All you really have to do is show him that you are, in fact, a significant segment of the population.

Oh, and I know that the PPA is already making plans to help here, but dont just sit back and expect them to do the work for you.
