Yes, the Governor made hay this week with his few public comments - and carefully avoided 'owning' what he initiated, expressing his willingness to compromise.
But we know otherwise, don't we Governor?
You unleashed this monster on the Commonwealth and couldn't wait to rid yourself of former House Speaker Sal DiMasi, a staunch opponent. You said as much to me in Franklin. How dare he prevent you from having your podium?
Revenge is sweet, but short-lived.
Surrounded by CORRUPTION you're ignoring and ready to move to higher office, brushing off the framework of disaster you've left behind like dandruff on a dark suit, incapable of real change and effective policy.
Snookered by Governor Patrick says it all.
Governor talks gambling deal for Massachusetts
BOSTON
Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick says he will accept one competitively bid slot parlor if it brings expanded gambling and casinos to the state.
During his monthly radio appearance on WTKK-FM Thursday, Patrick said he and legislative leaders agree there should be no more than three resort casinos in the state, and he will accept one slot parlor, a sticking point in last year's debate.
Patrick said he and legislative leaders are discussing details, such as tax rates and regulations, before a full legislative debate in the fall.
Senate Republicans are asking that when a gambling bill is drafted, the Senate wait 10 days to debate so legislators and the public can review it.
Former state Attorney General Scott Harshbarger has also called for a more transparent negotiations.
