Gov. Dannel Malloy seemed upbeat in his noontime news conference with Capitol reporters. “There are miles to go before I sleep,” he said in apparent homage to poet Robert Frost, noting the 40-some-odd days left before the end of the legislative session and its accompanying deadline for a bill on education reforms. First he launched into a tried and true sausage-factory reference worthy of the famous expose of the Chicago meat-packing industry. “I never served in the Legislature but I did make sausage for a summer job and it’s a bit like that,” Malloy said. “When the spices go in the sausage and when you finally load the casing that’s when its done.”
