I suspect Rubio is just looking out for the south Florida gambling interests and trying to keep the Seminoles in check for competitive reasons (just speculating). The House will probably be horsetrading on those two bills (you give us video lottery statewide and we give Miami gaming interests a tax break).No way does Las Vegas style gambling stay only in the seven specific locales mentioned in the Compact. That initial constitutional amendment to allow slots at the racetracks in south Florida was a trojan horse to allow full blown expansion of gambling in Florida. Every Legislative session for the next decade is going to contain gambling measures which will result in further expansion.BTW - I laughed when I read the part about money for the public schools. Classic gambling promotion as the cure all for budgetary woes.
