Deval Patrick, trying to persuade lawmakers to bring casino gambling to Massachusetts, is bolstering his jobs-and-revenue pitch with the argument that the Mashpee Wampanoag Indian tribe will beat everyone to it. The tribe wants the federal Bureau of Indian Affairs to approve its request to place 540 acres in Middleborough into federal trust - a key step for the tribe to build a $1 billion casino.
