MD Tracks to be auctioned

So, here's my conspiracy theory:

With Angelos now entering the Preakness picture, and considering his recent meeting with Gov O'Malley and Senate President Miller, this picture is starting to take shape in my pea-brain.

I think Pete wants slots. He claims he wants to save the Preakness, which paints him a hero but, reality is, he wants slots money.

Miller has dropped the hint that he is willing to call a special session of the legislature to deal with the MD tracks.

Magna is now requesting permission to auction off the MD tracks.

So, Miller calls the special session, where they typically ram stuff through without full discussion and hearings, and gets special legislation for Pete, and only Pete, to have slots at Laurel and Pimlico. Pete makes his bid, buys the tracks, and saves the Preakness!!!
