    Sen. Joe Biden (D-DE) voted against Sen. Jon Kyl’s S 474, Internet Gambling Prohibition Act of 1997, a bill that passed the Senate 90-10. This is positive both because the ticket has someone who's not knee-jerk opposed to us, and because Obama was willing to choose a running mate who is not knee-jerk opposed to us.

    I've rated Biden "B", and Obama remains "C". I'll likely rate the ticket B-, but haven't made that decision yet.

    The guide is here.

    Any updates to the Republican ratings with the choice of Sarah Palin as McCain's VP? Of course, the party in general gets bad marks these days, but I believe McCain has not expressed himself on the subject.

    Yes. Palin is anti-gaming, so I rated her "F", and the McCain/Palin ticket "D-". The guide is here.

    On the same topic, Obama/Biden is rated "B-", Barr/Root is "A+", and Baldwin/Castle is "F".
