[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Article in the Post today indicates Janie will run again.

My prediction:  Epstein will run again and win this time.  Janie will win heavily in Herndon HS area as before.  Louise will win heavily in Langley HS area as before.  Change will be that McLean HS area and Pimmit Hills, which gave Janie margin of victory before, will tip towards Epstein.  Why?  Failure to address large class sizes in McLean schools, and her role in pushing Pimmit Hills kids out of Haycock AAP have reduced the number of her supporters in both areas.

Once on Board, Epstein will align with McLaughlin, Reed, and Schultz.  If Sully votes in a more conservative candidate to replace Smith, and at least one of the at-large seats flips (Velkoff is the most vulnerable), the group will control half the Board.  [/quote]

If it is Strauss against Epstein, Epstein will once again lose. Sorry to those on these boards who clearly don't like Strauss, but there is true hatred toward Epstein in Dranesville, and it has only gotten stronger during the last 4 years as she has ensconced herself within the hard right-wingers on the MCA -- which is what started off this thread to begin with. Everywhere this woman goes, she makes enemies. She is an idealogue who is only out for herself, not interested in really "representing" any interests other than her own. And this thing about Strauss paying an FDK supporter? That story is a plant by Epstein. If you read it and understand the basic passage of time, there was nothing untoward going on there. The FDK person worked hard to get FDK, and had Strauss' support in doing so. Then, afterward, she worked on Strauss' campaign, and was paid for it because she's obviously a valuable advisor. Typical Epstein: Anybody who doesn't support/agree with you gets smeared in the press. It took Epstein years and years to get Fairgrade done (and it was of dubious, dubious value). It took the FDK group a single year. Obviously Epstein hates these people. Plus, you know, they actually were improving FCPS which takes (gasp!) tax money to do, sometimes. Epstein had nothing to do with FDK, as she has nothing to do with actual innovation in the schools. She's just obsessed with shrinking the budget. If that is your only concern about our schools, hey, vote for her. Just expect the quality of FCPS to keep falling and falling...

Dranesville may not have perfect options, but they're not fooled by Epstein.[/quote]
