ironic tho that the state sat on its hands for years when everyone was screaming for help-and now they're suddenly in crisis mode.

Our fine legislature and Gov are now trying to shove the eminant domain issue through to not only acquire the Preakness but all of Magna's Maryland assets.

This is the same legislature that has spent the last 6 years crushing MD racing, and now they're going to "save" it by eminant domain in less than a week.
