CHRIS POWELL: Without political will, Conn. will sink- The Register Citizen Opinion - Northwest Connecticut's Daily Newspaper: "First the General Assembly’s Appropriations Committee held hearings to parade every hard-luck case in the state in front of the television cameras to plead against any reduction in their assistance. Then the Municipal Mandate Board just appointed by Governor Rell to recommend reductions in state grants to cities and towns voted not to recommend anything. The only municipal official opposing the motion was Vernon Mayor Jason McCoy, who had specified many state mandates whose repeal would reduce municipal expenses."
