Deval Patrick says he needs about two more weeks to decide whether he'll support casino gambling in Massachusetts. The governor's support is key for two Indian tribes seeking to build resort casinos in the state. Other proposals include commercial casinos. When asked how long before he'll announce his position, Patrick responded: "Give me a couple of weeks." -- The Associated Press The governor said that during his nearly three-week-long vacation in western Massachusetts, he finished reading an internal report on the positives and negatives of casinos. But he said he still wants to talk to experts on both sides of the issue before making a decision. Earlier this year, Patrick had indicated he'd decide by Labor Day.
