Pardon my terminology - being the outsider I naturally assumed the Governator was classed as a leader.

We call him a RINO (Republican In Name Only). Between his flip flops and the senate, we're just as whacked out as before. We just look better on TV.

I didnt hear about that...but it wouldnt surprise me. I read an article on the Sands and it is estimated that each table in the Sands pulls in $10000 USD + per hour, 24 hrs a day and there are hundreds of tables....the highest grossing casino in the world. but darn interesting....thats why Mr. Adelson is no.3 on the rich people list
