Election day is coming (not soon enough)

It is amazing that nationally and locally no one is giving more than lip service to our schools and the economic plight they  face every year.  All we hear is cut taxes and create jobs.  That is a great plan, but without adequate schools we will never have the work force we need to compete in a global economy.  It is time we in education quit whining about not having enough money, lay the facts on the table and pressure these so called conservatives to provide for our students.  I am sure we will not get new tax revenue, but at least after the election we can suffer in silence without the politicians promises.
