Charters: Darling-Hammond School In Trouble

 Yay! Boo!  Charters!  Linda Darling-Hammond!  The Internets are burning up over news that a California charter affiliated with Stanford professor Linda Darling-Hammond has been denied an extension.  The New York Times has it here.  Hammond was the victim of a whisper campaign during the decisionmaking process surrounding the selection of the Obama education secretary and alienated lefties by participating in a charter school effort rather than toeing the "public" school line.
