    Slightly related, the supercommittee selected its staff director today, and he's a Republican tax specialist who was around in the mid-90s when Congress worked out a similar tax reform/budget deal. Long story short, most political observers Ive read think his selection makes it more likely the supercommittee reaches an agreement that can be approved in Congress, which obviously is a prerequisite to online poker being included in such a deal.

    Grasping at straws, I know, but what else are you gonna grasp at these days.
