Re: Over $10,000 raised! (Cliff note version)
Thanks for your efforts. In attacking Jim Leach I would play up the angle Iowa is one of our most pro gambling states:
The House of Representatives version of the bill was sponsored by Jim Leach, a Republican from Iowa. When you think of a place like Iowa and hear one of their U.S. Representatives was sponsoring an anti-gambling bill you might think they were an anti-gambling state. You would be wrong. Iowa has actually been a leader in the gambling boom across our nation. They can be proud that they were the first state to offer riverboat gambling. They have thirteen non-Indian Casinos and three Indian Casinos. All Iowa casinos offer blackjack, roulette, craps, slots and video poker. Some casinos offer mini-baccarat, poker, pai gow, Caribbean stud poker, let it ride, big 6, bingo, keno, three card poker and Spanish 21. At three of their racetracks they have slot machines and in 2004 added table games. Does this sound like an anti-gambling state to you? Where does Jim Leach get the nerve to appear to be an anti-gambling crusader? How many people have lost house at Iowa Casinos and playing the Iowa lottery? |
