As Gambling Man mentioned on the 3 Casino thread.... the 3 Detroit casinos have a well funded ally in NOT getting more casinos in Michigan. And that would be the rich and very well funded Saginaw Tribe of Chippewa Indians... who own and run the Soaring Eagle Casino near Mt. Pleasant. [[not to be confused with the Sault Tribe of Chippewa Indians of the Upper Peninnsula and Greektown).
And if I'm not mistaken being a Native American entity, they are not constrained by lobbying restrictions, as the Detroit Casinos are [[even though Greektown was majority Indian owned)..
The 3 Detroit casinos are here to stay... continuing to gripe about it is a waste of time and energy...
