Many seem to be held accountable except for Bloomberg, Klein, and Duncan for their union-busting/middle class-attacking ways. It is sad to see Obama giving so much time to these "managers". So tired of these "snake oil-salesman's" edu-speak. End or change Mayoral Control - it hurts kids, their parents, and middle-class teachers.
