J,
I don't think most of the "religious right" gives a rip about this. It isn't in their top 5 anyway.

Couldn't agree with you more. I'd consider myself and my kind to be about as right-wing extremist as it gets these days, and gambling is NOWHERE on our radar screens.
The Christian right is the straw-man of this whole gambling ban brew-ha-ha. It's really all about the domestic gaming lobbies(casinos, horses, lotteries, etc.) and about lost taxation opportunities (ie. the government not getting its cut).
