This is a complete 180 for John McCain. Prior to this, he has said that education is not a priority to him. I guess "flip flop" isn't bad when it's a republican.

And considering that my state has voted down charter schools multiple times now, this won't really help him here. Not everyone likes the idea of giving up on public schools. What happens when half the people in, say, the Seattle School District, demand vouchers to go to school in the suburbs? What happens to the kids that transfer to schools that teach at a level too high for what they've been prepared for, and what happens to the schools that get an influx of kids that aren't prepared to be there?
