Memo to all of the new volunteers for Joe Heck's campaign -- Better hope he doesn't fall too far behind in the polls. Based on previous history, he might end up switching over to an easier race if the sledding gets too tough. Like Henderson dog catcher, maybe.
Jackpot is a LONG way from here... it's on the northeast side of Nevada on the Idaho state line. About 450 miles, I think.
Never been there, so couldn't tell you what's worth seeing there. But it would probably be an interesting road trip getting there...
Boris, Ameristar does not own any casinos in Las Vegas, even though it's based here.
They once owned the Fiesta Henderson (then known as the Reserve), but sold it to Station Casinos years ago. They haven't been in the market since.
About the only thing that can stabilize the market now are sweeping reductions in principal mortgage balances, in order to put a dent in the growing number of houses with massive negative equity balances.
But people think that's icky, and banks think it's more fun to foreclose (even though that option costs them more than chopping off a chunk of principal). And so the spiral continues.

"Alaska, A TRUE fiscal Conservative state."
Oh, you mean the same state that leads the nation in federal spending (AKA "pork") received per resident? That gets nearly $2 in federal spending for every dollar in federal taxes paid?
Kind of easy to pay out annual checks to all of your citizens when you're living large on the taxes paid by residents of the lower 48.
