A tiny bit of better economic news

Rhode Island teeters on the economic brink, as Governor Carcieri told us last night.

In Connecticut, they're looking to fill jobs at the MGM Grand hotel at Foxwoods.

Meanwhile, in Massachusetts, where Dan Kennedy has kept a close eye on the casino issue, he think it's getting less likely that the Bay State will move forward with a series of casinos. That seems like good news for one of Rhode Island's largest sources of state revenue, although it's unfortunate that the state finds itself in such a defensive position in the first place.
