Not happy that the McCain campaign is using an Ed Week article he wrote last year to demonstrate Obama's thin record on education in the U.S. Senate, David Hoff pens this disclaimer on Campaign K-12:
In response to Sen. Barack Obama's education speech yesterday, the McCain campaign is circulating the following sentence I wrote in 2007:
In his eight years in the state Senate and two years in the U.S. Senate, Mr. Obama hasn't made a significant mark on education policy.
I'd like to remind the campaign that earlier this year I quoted an Arizona superintendent saying this about McCain:
I don't think he has a strong track record of putting education at the top of his priorities.
Read the Obama story and the McCain story and you can decide who has a better track record on K-12 issues.
Smack!
