[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm really no fan of Bowser and can't think of anything she can do at this point to sway my vote her way.

So I really, [i]really [/i]want a reason to vote for Catania but this statement isn't doing it, either.  The boundary/assignment changes could not possibly please everyone but it can be refined and amended.  All can agree that school quality needs to be addressed, but that can't happen in a year so what's the point of delay - especially when there are grandfather clauses for those who want status quo?

For all the talk of Catania's intelligence and thorough understanding of the state of DCPS, he's been pretty whisper quiet on what he thinks needs to be done to raise school quality.  What's his vision?  More funding?  Innovative programming? Just . . . "make the schools better"???

It doesn't take a lot to criticize what we've got.  It seems to me that Catania is just more vociferous than most, but it doesn't mean he's got a plan for making it better.  If he wants to be a drag on the painful boundary review process we just went through without at least talking about what direction he wants to go in, I have to keep giving him the side eye.[/quote]

You summed up my position to a 'T'. At this point, I'd prefer Gray over either one of them.  What's a little election fraud between friends?   :-o [/quote]
