en My sense is that since this is such an obvious and admitted political compromise, I would think a court _ if it were going to strike it down _ would send the whole thing back to the Legislature, as opposed to extending it to casinos. It's clear the Legislature didn't want to do that.

en Putting Karl Rove in charge makes no sense whatsoever, ... He has no resume and no skills other than running political campaigns -- and if he is being put in place to protect the president politically, that decision does not serve the best interests of the American people, nor of the victims of Hurricane Katrina.
