Lynn Swann Wants Answers

Lynn Swann, Republican Candidate for Governor of Pennsylvania, had some harsh words for the current governor, Governor Rendell. He wants Rendell to list the specific gambling laws that he would be in favor of so as to clear up any confusion for the PA legislature. Rendell’s spokespeople responded that they have already done it, and for Swann’s camp to try reading the letter that was sent. "They keep saying, 'We don't know what he supports,' " Fee said.”Then they should learn to read, because they've been sent this letter. The governor will read it aloud to them if they'll come back to Harrisburg and do their job."

The Democratic candidate and his camp have accused Republicans of stalling the slot machine initiatives by refusing to work during their summer recess. Swann’s comment was, “"Passing a piece of legislation for reform knowing that the governor is not going to sign it means what? … It doesn't mean anything." He and other republicans claimed that the one bill that was sent through that allowed lawmakers to own part of the company that was licensed under the state was vetoed by Rendell.

Rendell’s group says the only reason it was vetoed was that it was just a way for the lawmakers and their immediate families to have stakes in the slot machine companies, and that seemed a conflict of interest. Basically, the Republicans and Democrats have found something else to fight about.
