When was the last time an editorial in the WaPo stated that a GOP candidate was leading on education?  Yesterday’s piece, dealing with the proposed education policies of both GOP candidate Bob McDonnell and Dem standard bearer Creigh Deeds, was the first I can remember.

McDonnell promises to break down the barriers being faced by those attempting to open charter schools in the Commonwealth.  According to the WaPo, “Mr. Deeds’ stance is less defined.”

Whatever the reason, Mr. McDonnell is unquestionably on the right side of this debate.
