One GIANT leap !!!!!!!

Not sure whether to to be happy or sad. Seems our gov, Mitt Romney, vetoed the wine shipping bill. Here's what he said -

"This bill does not give wine lovers the opportunity to purchase the bottlings they want," the Republican chief executive said in a statement. "It creates artificial barriers to protect Massachusetts wholesalers at the expense of a free market."

Don't know if the legislators, with the WSWA contributions safely in their banks, are going to say "Oh well, we tried" and just go away, or if they're going to try again. I believe they're on winter recess, so whatever they do won't happen for awhile. I do believe they have to do something fairly soon because the current legislation is in conflict with the Supremes' ruling. Romney's a non-drinker for religious reasons, but he has seemed historically to not have let his religious beliefs get in the way of doing the right thing. Guess we'll have to wait and see - again.
