News reporting the Binding bid is $170mil....that pretty much knocks it out of the park....doubt Republic can pull together $171mil to make the next bid.

$170 million...wow!! I knew we (SWA) were serious about winning this. This is the part on World Series of Poker where somebody stands up waiting for the last card....

Ok, I can now seriously say: IT'S ON!!
