      <![CDATA[They've already had several chances, Nat, in which they've managed to 1) alienate support, 2) demonstrate that they clearly are working in a reactionary manner with little, if any, clear thought with regard to the consequences of their policy changes, 3) break the Open Meetings law, 4) violate their own existing policies with regard to meeting procedure, 5) vote to waste $15 million, despite clear evidence from an assortment of legitimate experts that it will result in higher costs and students spending an additional 2 years in trailers and 6) caused the existing superintendent, who despite partisan anger to the contrary has been excellent in the role, to resign. Now they expect to be able to find a well qualified replacement willing to step into the morass they have created of gaffes, reactionary policy changes, a polarized electorate and a staff ready to mutiny from the folks that I've talked to.
