I must agree TLG. Simply put, he wants another new board, so he can put his own people in so as to have more people owe him. Split the casinos away, more boards, more appointees, more people in power in his pocket. Trying to get the simulcasting rights away, which of course would destroy the franchise owner, would simply mean to him the same. And he of course is beeing a bully also as this is one of the first big public things since Spitzer bungled nailing him for the improper use of state property with his helicopter rides...which by the way he is guilty of and it sure cost a lot more than what Hevesi cost the state when he lost his position. I would hope his act has caused the voters in his home district to better see that he could care less about their interests, but somehow jokers like him just keep getting elected.
