More of a tankjob for MGM – Mike Ensign walked out of that deal with a cool $130M, before the gaming industry in Nevada took a nosedive. Just like bedroom farces, timing is everything.

A question asked by many elected officials the morning after, with somewhat varied results.

That’s what we need a picture of, DB. A long black limousine pulling up, and money being passed from Ensign Senior to the Hampton kids and parents.
GOP values.
Also if you’re not busy, a picture of Kurtz the Lesser festooned with sausages….

Mike Ensign was the CEO of Mandalay Bay and brokered the sale of the property to MGM – Apparently, he was involved in a development called Prairie Sky in Kansas as a principal this year.

With the added frisson of Daddy’s big casino money bailing out his rampantly wienered senator son, even.
Just goes to show how in the bag the Beltway Media Boys are – Heaven forbid they should lose their hallowed access to this mutual bullshit society.
