Good luck with them taking on the unions and their huge warchests. That next re-election may be much tougher for them.

"That hedging occurred even as he pursued multiple strategies for gaining control of Los Angeles schools. He sent his deputy mayor for education, Ramon Cortines, to help run the district in 2008. And he helped elect six of the board's seven members, spending $2.2 million alone in 2007 to elect school board candidate Tamar Galatzan, defeating the union's candidate, incumbent Jon Lauritzen."

Yep. Remember when the PTA was run by parents? Now it is teachers.

Teachers/administrators elect their own superintendents and school boards.
