Default Re: Please tell me who I should vote for

Any one voting should pick the candidate best for them, and not expect someone to do it for them. It's easy to research this stuff with sites like Project Vote Smart. At any rate, voting because of poker isn't going to help in most cases, because most of them are too stupid to understands the economic benefits of regulation. On one side you have bleeding heart liberals worried about addicts, who will just bet the horses to piss it away. On the other, you have religious Zealots trying to save our souls.

The way this gets fixed is by a lobbiest group such as the one that just started, or through the courts. I'd have to believe that a good Lawyer could make a hell of an argument that if they are willing to exempt Horse Racing and Lotteries, that they are just discriminating against poker players.
