Show Me The Money
Mark Hebert and Al Cross stated a basic truth about the House Democratic Caucus on last week’s Comment on Kentucky.
The House Democratic Caucus has one and only one goal – reelect incumbent Democrats and maintain power in the House of Representatives. Power comes before anything else.
Truthfully, I find it hard to feel a lot of sympathy for Brereton Jones and the gamblers being shaken down by Jody Richards and his crew. After all, Jones is not pushing casinos to pay for education, or pension plans or Medicaid. He and KEEP are pushing casinos so they can line their own pockets.
But I do find it disgusting that the Democrats would do anything possible to keep clowns like Jim Gooch in office.
Below is the exchange on Comment on Kentucky.

Perhaps it is time to ask the tracks and breeders just how much money they need to stay competitive without casinos. We are learning here that tracks and casinos are not natural allies but natural rivals and legislators are getting caught in the middle. Brer Jones and Tracy Farmer sure have been quiet lately. What's wrong guys, afraid to finish what you started?
