A Republican senator running for reelection on the strength of his good relationship with ... Sen. Barack Obama?!? Between that and the strong possibility that Sen. John McCain could win the presidency and yet see the national GOP sustain tremendous losses, it's the topsy-turviest election year I've ever seen.
Silliest Echelon Objection Yet. While Boyd Gaming's decision to mothball Echelon for a year has played to across-the-board raves in the financial community, not everyone agrees. A union exec pouts that the unfinished project will be an "eyesore" that will affront the delicate sensibilities of visitors. (Having 800 of his men suddenly idled surely plays more than a peripheral role in Mr. Ross' sudden concern for aesthetics.) Heck, there are several eyesores along the Strip already -- and they're open for business.
Update: An analyst for BMO Capital Markets seconds the "eyesore" sentiment regarding Echelon, adding "embarrassment" for good measure. But his overall verdict can be summed up as, Better a loss of dignity now than a loss of money further down the road.
