But I could pay through the nose if I wanted to stay there. So this is my FU to Foxwoods!! Although I am getting a great rate and a free night in the suites due to my Hilton Honors membership.
PS - Fat Boy isn't getting that far. I think he'll be out of the race by January.
Even after fat boy drops out, he has to lobby for his fellow candidates and stuff.
2017 and beyond looks better - fat boy becomes fatter lame duck, new governor gets elected, AC becomes more willing to cut a deal.
If you are from NYC, the closest alternatives are in PA. I'm not really a fan of them myself, but the commute is so much more comfortable.
A casino in northern NJ would of course be the nuts. But it is a political and economic quagmire.
