Some of my friends from the Texas chapter of the American Federation of Teachers will be catching the debate tonight with Bill Clinton in San Antonio. AFT was one of the first groups to endorse Clinton, back in October. The Clintons are showing their gratitude by inviting the locals to witness the Clinton-Obama debate.

Education has not risen to the top in this primary. Still, the ed lobby has much to like in Clinton’s pro-labor anti-voucher positions. (Barack Obama, on the other hand, told supporters in New York last week he was open to vouchers if research showed they worked.) Clinton’s comments on the subject have been the subject of some ridicule amongst conservatives. Blogger Alexander Russo called it “her jihad on vouchers.”
