Jack O'Connel: A Dem using Republican Talking Points?

Because when I argued for the exit exam yesterday, I was accused of not moving beyond the Republican talking points. ergo, if I was solely using Republican talking points, and he made the same argument as me, he must be using Republican talking points.
In addition, Democrats are under a lot of pressure from the CTA and the CTA hates the exit exam. I have heard representatives from the CTA testify a lot, and almost everything in his speech ran contrary to what they want.
The exit exam, and many of the reforms on education that have passed, all have to have Democrat support in California. That is the problem. Every time a Democrat legislater steps out of line the CTA tries to make them pay and they have big bucks and can turn out armies of precinct walkers.
Like I said, some of the fixes to the education problem in California are obvious to most people (like the Exit exam) but you have the CTA throwing their entire weight against them.

It appears that the CTA's control over the Democratic party was never so ironclad as you believe.
