Cleveland schools to choose from 3, and Bill Denihan's one.

Last night on the news at 11 we got the first encouraging sign of things starting to go right in this city--Bill Denihan was among the three finalists to head up the school board. Overnight, I tried to put aside my built-in GO BILL! bias and let the critical distinction come to me, the distinction that would inform an intelligent decision of the citizens as to how to proceed next on the huge issue of the schools.

On the way down to the market for the paper this morning, it came to me: Given that all three candidates are competent and have demonstrated abilities as turn-around administrators, the one that already loves this town is Bill; the other two still have to learn to love it.
