You knew this would happen, but try and hold out some hope.  I expect Hawthorne, Maywood and Fairmont to close within a couple years or maybe months, who knows.  Balmoral won't be too far behind and even Arlington could be gone.

Makes me sick to my stomach.  I hope the casinos don't get that kind of ahold on the politiciansin Ohio or we are all screwed.  Money talks. and it makes me puke.  thumbsdown
