How Central Falls should resolve its education problems, meeting (or not) with the governor-elect, speaking to the Tea Party, and needing dough were the topics when Matt and I spoke last night on the Matt Allen Show.

I was pleased and surprised to discover that I’m on the desirable side of Dan McGowan’s latest “Who’s hot and who’s not in RI politics” list on GoLocalProv, in company of Chafee and Tavares, Steven Constantino, and the DREAM Act. The reason is our “quiet campaign” to create a full-time job on the site, so…
Well, look at that: Anchor Rising made GoLocalProv’s list of “opinion makers.” Anchor Rising is the conservative voice in the blog world in RI. Led by Justin Katz, it is always driving the agenda and one of the first in the market to create a destination for conservatives to share their views. By the way,…
