Cannon Shell has got it. David Williams is a man of limited horizons and his major goal in the state house is to prove he is a big shot by doing what he is doing - stop a measure that the enemy (the Democrats) wants. He also is playing to the type of Baptist crowd that looks on gambling with abhorrence, which is still a large constituency out in the counties. This is not the first time Williams has pulled this sort of trick; I sort of wish he would get kicked upstairs to the House (where he would be great material for John Stewart and Stephen Colbert) and let the rest of the state government get on with governing.
