Exactly how does any of that mean "...the kids are winning." Explain that one to me. How does making the teachers pay 2.5% more for their healthcare make an iota of difference to "the kids"? There was enough time to "kibbutz" if the union was willing to concede these things anyways. That was not why there was such a rush. No, the a-hole governor needed to appear tough and put on a big show for his a-hole supporters. That's what this was all about.

"Kids", my ass. This entire episode didn't have a darn thing to do with "the kids". This was politics, plain and simple.
