Arne Duncan as Lucy

The Secretary of Education announced the two states who won his "Race to the Top" competition for reforming education.  It strikes me that he's like Charles Schulz's Lucy, tantalizing Charlie with the football.  On the other hand, anyone who has tried to lure an animal into a place they don't really want to go by using food, knows his strategy.  Just enough to tempt, not enough to satiate.  (Come to think of it, that's what strippers do.)
