The actual editorial isn't online but Greg Peck of The Janesville Gazette dives into the off-reservation gaming policy of Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R):
How do you explain the stance on new casinos that Gov. Scott Walker took last week? Walker, who supports most anything to foster economic development and job creation, said any of the 11 Wisconsin tribes could veto any off-reservation casino proposal.

The tribes must agree by “consensus,” he said. That, he told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, “doesn’t mean 10 ‘yes’ and one ‘no.’ Consensus means everybody says ‘yes.’”
