Two Republicans and One Democrat in the GA house are sponsoring a bill to allow sports betting with the proceeds going to the very popular HOPE Scholarship program.  I am a strong supporter of the proposal.  The bill has the support of about half the 101 Republicans and most of the 79 Democrats and was coasting down grade toward approval.  At least it was until today.  Today the Democratic caucas threw sand in the gears and the Democratic sponsor withdrew his support.  The Democrats let it be known the Bill is dead unless the Republicans wake up and get real as for as the sudden need to ''reform'' state election laws with reform meaning to do whatever it takes to make it much more difficult for the very old, the very young and the very ''tanned'' people to vote.  A necessity made evident when Democrats started winning statewide elections.  Remember the betting bill has the support of about half the Republicans?  Well, the other half are the Evangelicals who adamently oppose gambling in any form.  Unless the Democrats and the other half of the Republicans decide to do what used to be the way it works...compromise...then the betting bill is in the ditch!  The GA Democrats learn to play the game.  It may not work but God bless'em!
