The PPA

Well, I asked you to elaborate and you've really failed to do so, except with respect to PokerNews; so,
Now re PokerNews ....so what, what does PokerNews promoting Caesars' brand, even for payola, have to do with NJ licensing PokerStars or not. ? You never read Card Player, the ultimate pay for print mouthpiece of the online poker industry ?
Now, put up or shut up and provide something to support your "impression" or your "feeling" or some the basis for
(a) your posting your "impression" the NJ CCC is being paid to delay PStars' application, You saw too many Sopranos episodes or watched the Godfather too many times, perhaps ?
(b) your utter failure to substantiate that the PPA is anything other than a "friend" of players, (who likely would love to see a PokerStars beachhead established on the sands of Atlantic City).
You are calling the PPA a lobbying force in NJ for Caesars against Stars ? ... nope, no way, not the PPA, sorry. One time federal lobbying partners, yes ... but Caesars' whore in NJ, nope, no way.
