Most likely, she supports CommonCrap which is total opposite of improving education
Common Core is fine so long as the localities can perform the implementation themselves.
That's contradictory since the purpose is to have all schools follow the same path
No. That's not contradictory. Like, in the slightest.

Using the same road doesn't necessitate driving the same car.
Having states/cities make changes destroys the point of Common Core
No, having them go below Common Core standards would destroy the point of Common Core.

Going above and beyond is universally accepted as a good thing.

Common core is a minimum standard, not a maximum.
Except schools that have higher standards have to lower their standards because other schools in the same state don't follow theirs
I'd like a source on that.

Yesterday marked a major mile stone in American Senate. Republican Tim Scott, a black man, from South Carolina becomes the first person of color to win a Senate election in the south since Reconstruction (making him the 5th black Senator in history) with an astounishing 61% of the votes

However, some ignorant shit heads can't celebrate because he's a Republican

A West Virginia University freshman who did most of her campaigning out of her dorm room became the youngest state lawmaker in the nation Tuesday.

Republican Saira Blair, a fiscally conservative 18-year-old, will represent a small district in West Virginia’s eastern panhandle, about 1½ hours outside Washington, D.C., after defeating her Democratic opponent 63% to 30%, according to the Associated Press. A third candidate got 7% of the vote.

In a statement, Ms. Blair thanked her supporters and family, as well as her opponents for running a positive campaign. “History has been made tonight in West Virginia, and while I am proud of all that we have accomplished together, it is the future of this state that is now my singular focus,” she said.

Ms. Blair campaigned on a pledge to work to reduce certain taxes on businesses, and she also holds antiabortion and pro-gun positions. She defeated Democrat Layne Diehl, a 44-year-old Martinsburg attorney, whose top priorities included improving secondary education and solving the state’s drug epidemic.

Ms. Diehl congratulated Ms. Blair on running a good campaign and said she knew she was also up against broad dissatisfaction with Democrats in the state, partly from the widely held view that the Obama administration’s energy policies are hurting the coal industry.

“I’m very proud of the race that was run on both sides,” Ms. Diehl said. “Quite frankly a 17- or 18-year-old young woman that has put herself out there and won a political campaign has certainly brought some positive press to the state. I look forward to seeing what her leadership brings to the state of West Virginia.”

Ms. Blair gained national attention in May when she defeated the 66-year-old Republican incumbent in a primary when she was 17.

She will be the youngest state lawmaker in the nation, according to records kept by the National Conference of State Legislatures. There are more than 7,300 state legislators in the U.S., and fewer than 5% are under the age of 30, according to Morgan Cullen, a policy analyst at NCSL.

Ms. Blair said she would defer her spring semester to attend the part-time legislature’s 60-day session and make up classes in the summer and fall. She promoted her youth as an asset during the campaign, saying the voice of younger voters should be heard in the state capitol. An economics major, she hopes to become a financial planner, and she supports term limits.

She also contributed nearly $4,000 to her own campaign.

“Candidates should have some skin in the game,” Ms. Blair said in a recent interview. “I wanted voters to know I was serious.”

Regardless of affiliation, she deserves an applause for this great achievement

Only HD release that's not a rip-off is the MCC as you're getting, 4 games (all updated 60fps/1080p), multiplayer for two games that don't exist, a new forge mode, a movie, and month long access to H5 beta (year before it's release so actual adjustments can be made). That's rightly worth $60

Republicans go on Fox News and complain the President refuses to work with them.
Repeat until 2016.
Wrong

After vetoing, it's sent BACK to Congress and can be passed after a 2/3rds vote
Can be? Yes, it can be; the process exists. It wont, though. Republicans won't have a supermajority in either the Senate or House.
Well Democrats are pushing themselves away from Obama and his policies at a shot for re-election. Wouldn't be surprised if some join with the Republicans so they can get a head start for 2016
They're distancing themselves from Obama, but they wont repeal Obamacare.
Hey, people will do anything to keep their comfy job and high paying salary. If they're from a red/red-leaning state then it's a possibility
