Last week the Democrats had some fun at the teachers unions' expense, but yesterday it was the Republicans' turn. First there was Margaret Spellings:
I do not think [John McCain's] going to be worried about the teachers' unions and the equities of grown-ups.
And then Mitt Romney:
Is a government liberal or conservative that puts the interests of the teachers union ahead of the needs of our children? It's liberal.
Let's face it: just like Republicans can never outbid Democrats when it comes to school spending, Democrats can never outdo Republicans on teachers union bashing. But it's great that they're trying!
