Sheldon Adelson should be the posterboy for the
Democratic Party. They need to put him out there, surrounded by betting machines. The Billionaire who made his money off of regular folks' unfulfilled dreams. Go to Vegas and become a Millionaire...vote for Romney and become a Millionaire. Broken dreams...his money is made from the hard earned money that people lost. So, the message the Repubs are sending by taking all the millions from Sheldon is "Vote for the guy backed by the high roller who always wins while you lose." Yup, throw the dice on the table that is stacked against you.

4. His money is made from broken dreams and maybe also through other means.

I have no evidence, but I do wonder whether a casino would not be the perfect way to launder money or mask donations from foreign countries or companies.
Even John McCain thought of this. Adelson needs to say exactly how and from whom he got every cent that he spends to support or further Romney's campaign. Same for the other big campaign donors for any and all candidates. |

7. It's why the mob moved into Vegas to begin with.
|
They used the casinos to launder all of their other money. Vegas was built on money laundering.
