Deal created a stir when he said earlier this month that he was willing to keep an ``open mind'' about the possibility of casinos in Georgia. This week, Deal spokesman Brian Robinson said the former congressman from Gainesville ``personally opposes casino gambling'' and doesn't believe they're the best way to spur the state's economy. Robinson wouldn't say whether Deal would sign a veto a casino bill if one landed on his desk.
The campaign of Deal's opponent, Democrat Roy Barnes, said Deal's waffling shows he ``is too unsteady for the job'' of governor.
