"If this (law) causes a person to lose an election, then it’s better to lose an election and to save people’s lives," Gilligan concludes. "I don’t think it’s going to affect people they way they think. A lot of people don’t go to bars and taverns because they don’t want to smell the smoke. It all opens up a new level of clientele."
Listen, hemmorhoid, if that's so true, why don't you open a no-smoking bar in a busy entertainment district and put your money where your mouth is.

Oh that's right....the definition of a politician is someone who puts other peoples' money where his mouth is.

Interesting thing is that one of the 3 race track/casino venues is in his district and it is VERY close to the state line. It's also only about an hour from atlantic City.

If What is being said about Dover Downs winds up even being half true - Delaware park will be in even deeper trouble - as it brings in even more than DD.

What everyone is failing to acknowlege is that this ban goes into effect the day before Thanksgiving. Numerous places have already started reporting loss of previously booked holiday parties.

The fire halls and Elks and Moose Lodges are getting those parties now.
