PID named two of the biggest stakes races of the meet after Republican politicans ... one of them who campaigned to rid the city of horse racing in the 1980's ... and the biggest stake of the PID meet is named for a Southern Golf Tournament.

Further, in the press room, for God only knows what reason, they still have a huge ass picture of George W. Bush in a suit and tie - standing behind an American flag.

I have been saying for years that I'm going to get a Nancy Pilosi and Barney Frank FATHEAD poster - and slap it on the wall in there when I remember one of these days.
Doug, what kind of race would you like named after you?
