Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.

Massachusetts recently legalized casino gambling. The bulk of the opposition came from the left, on the grounds that the casinos would attach themselves like leeches to the local economies around them.

Conservatives are more anti-strip club but the anti-casino vote is mixed. At least around here there are a ton of liberals who are against gambling because they see it as a way for corporations to take advantage of people. But, then again, I live in Ohio.

It's the same here, but it's slightly more complicated than that, for reasons that BRTD articulated. Massachusetts is a de facto intraparty two-faction system between leftist and center-right Democrats and the people currently in charge of the commonwealth are the latter.
