On the honor roll -- Chris Christie and Rahm Emanuel fight for better teachers ...
I am talking about the surprising brotherhood forming between that these two political brawlers – one on the right and one on the left – as they take on bad schools and the teachers’ unions that defend bad schools. Fighting the unions and the money they pump into American politics – usually to help Democrats who in turn give them contracts that include protection for bad teachers - has long been a complaint from Republicans. Scott Walker , in his bitter fight to take away collective bargaining rights from teachers in his state, represents the full blast of Republican anger at unions and their cozy relationship with Democrats. In the past that brand of Republican did not risk an all-out fight with a deep-pocketed foe such as teachers’ unions. The same was true of big city Democratic mayors such as the former Obama White House Chief of Staff, and Chicago Mayor Emanuel. Urban mayors counted on the teachers’ union for money and organized support. What do Republican Chris Christie and Democrat Rahm Emanuel have in common. Christie is a northeastern moderate Republican.
