[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This reeks of a manufactured crisis that will allow the mayor to swoop in and save the day.  Thus endearing herself to a neighborhood population where she did poorly in the general election.  And potentially insulating herself from a challenge by the former mayor in two years.  Stay tuned....[/quote]

Conspiracy theorists give these bungling bureaucrats way too much credit. The system is corrupt and broken. The Mayor has actually been supportive of Murch, so this brouhaha has to be embarrassing for her. But she's also under pressure to show she's a good fiscal steward after an audit found the last two administrations violated the law with the way school modernizations were handled. That's why DCPS took over from DGS on the Murch project last fall and will be in charge of all school modernizations going forward. With Murch, the DCPS bean counters are trying to make a big show of how they're the new sheriff in town. Of course, DCPS has even less construction-management expertise than it does educational expertise. At this point, the Mayor does need to swoop in and save the day. It's called leadership. [/quote]
