Charlie Bakst yesterday broke the interesting news that Brett Smiley, who helmed Charles Fogarty's gubernatorial run last year, has signed on with Providence Mayor David Cicilline's political organization. Bakst also noted how Cicilline fundraiser Amy Gabarra is now with Frank Caprio, one of the mayor's prospective gubernatorial rivals for 2010.

As previously noted here, Cicilline has already hired on such stalwarts as Deb Brayton and Ani Haroian. The addition of Smiley is just the latest evidence of the mayor's all-but-announced plan to go statewide.
