GEORGIA, NATHAN DEAL AND COMMON CORE

Get Rid Of Common Core

Despite terrible polling for Common Core especially from the Republican base in Georgia. Nathan Deal has chosen to appeal to the Edu-crats and double down on Common Core.

I spoke with Jane Robbins from the American Principles Project (AUDIO BEGINS AT 58:00) about what’s happening with Common Core in Georgia and South Carolina.  She tells me how Governor Deal is pushing Common Core along with the Georgia Department of Education by signing a 5 year contract with a new test aligned to Common Core which forces the state to be held hostage by these awful standards.  

Governor Nathan Deal needs a “Scott Walker moment.” Common Core was a done deal in Wisconsin and there seemed to be indifference from Scott Walker until very recently.  He read the tea leaves and realized that if he wants to ever have a chance at running for President and be the GOP nominee that he better get rid of Common Core.  Well, Governor Nathan Deal, your election is not a redstate lock by any stretch of the imagination.  You can listen to the poll dismiss-ers or you can make sure conservatives show up for you on election day.  It’s your choice.
