Politics: Democrats and Vouchers and Wile E. Coyote

16728wbLast week in Chicago, firebrand state senator James Meeks (D-IL) suggested that things were getting to be so bad with the Chicago Public Schools that he might be open to private school vouchers. Andrew Coulson at Cato notes that Meeks joins a "small but growing" handful of local Democrats.  As for the national Dems who remain opposed to vouchers, Coulson suggests that they are, like Wile E. Coyote, experiencing a "temporary suspension of the law of gravity."
