Kansas GOP gives failing grade to Common Core

We’ve got a similar thing going on up here in Maine.

Governor LePage, who was elected with 38% of the vote in 2010, has been distancing himself from Common Core; it seems as though his Tea Party backers are getting all bent out of shape about it.

It must be awfully tough trying to figure out that precise spot where you won’t offend either business interests (who support Common Core) or the Tea Party loonies, who hate everything.

Bangor Daily News - Common Core standards have tea party seeing school takeover

Whatever style guide the BDN uses that precludes capitalization of “tea party” — thumbs up!
