Here's an interesting twist on the uphill battle that the Administration faces.....NIMBY-Boston.
Some Boston legislators state casinos would be bad for their district. Yet they suggest they wouldn't mind if the problems associated with casinos are sited in southeastern or western Massachusetts and possibly the fertile terriority north of Boston....Winchester? Marblehead? Beverly Farms?
