Ante Up: Casino Debate Stalls Beacon Hill

Jon Keller reports on how the debate is going.  SPOILERS: Not well!

Bob Oakes reports that there is a 50/50 chance that this thing will even pass.

The AP reports that there MAY be a bill.

Jim O'Sullivan shares the uncertainty, but reports that talks have not broken down between houses yet.  Noah Bierman adds that the rhetoric on both side is toning down.  Hillary Chabot reports that all sides are committed to producing a bill.

The Massachusetts Liberal analyzes everyone's agenda.

Blue Mass Group's Scout objects to a lame rebuttal to the "racinos are no-bid contracts" argument.

Andrew Ryan reports that several Massachusetts mayors are supporting the House's racino plan.  Not Mayor Menino, however, who doesn't want to upset the process by supporting any particulars.
