Greetings from the Andy Stern/Harold Meyerson lunch at YearlyKos. A representative from the National Education Association just came up to me offering a T-shirt reading: No Child Left Behind. Had Enough? It's time for a change! I declined but he threw one down anyway with a smile. Every empty seat has one of these shirts draped over it. They're being handed out at the door. Your union dues at work, teachers!

A union rep just got on the mic to the "Halliburtonization" of public education. Unsurprisingly, she sees a NEA/netroots axis as a "natural" alliance.

P.S. It's beginning to sound as if Harold Meyerson was against globalization.
