#reidbill: Dead or Alive?

The Las Vegas Sun published an article with breath-stopping title and sensational image of Reid ponderously looking downwards while chatting into his cell phone.

Twitfeed #reidbill erupted.

But take a closer look at this article -> frankly it doesn\’t make any sense.

1. \”Rest easy, traditionalists: online poker will not be entering the legally authorized gaming arena this lame duck Congress, and that probably means it won’t be happening any time soon.\” -> this sounds like the bill is dead.

2. Reid \”would not be adding legalization of online poker to his list of objectives during the lame duck.\” -> objectives? so is it dead?

3. “We’re still working on that, we’re not able to,” Reid said.-> Is he working, or he not able?

4.  \”But if Reid says there’s still too much work to be done on it, that doesn’t seem too likely an outcome anymore.\” -> if it\’s not an objective then when why is he working on it? Is it unlikely, or dead?

5. Why is the *Las Vegas Sun* the one reporting on this?

The only thing that seems relevant in this article is why it was published in the first place.
