    After yesterday’s hearing, Senator Rod Wright has announced that he’s “pulling” his legislation to regulate online poker in California. Read more here.

    What do you guys think? Good or bad news? Combine this with the news out of New Hampshire and New Jersey recently, and it doesn’t seem like *any* online gambling bills are going to get approved by lawmakers — for better or for worse.

    Still, given how radical some of these proposals are, that might be the best thing for online gambling affiliate marketers …

    I think they should just get a clear cut law passed governing the whole country, and of course in favour of giving the American Citizens the “FREEDOM OF CHOICE”

    Nathan, I still think that these proposals are coming out at the wrong time, since online gambling talk is a political hot potato going into an election. I think we will have a much better chance of passing these laws (somewhere !) after the 2010 elections, and into 2011, as the economy continues to deteriorate and debt mounts. And yes, a law such as the one on CA, is way to stringent, and certainly not affiliate friendly at all….so, for affiliates, this bill going down in flames in a plus for us all.

    Well, I think we all agree on that. That is a much tougher nut to crack than at the state level, given the magnitude of the passing of UIGEA.
