Sad but true. Status quo it is. And we all know how well that has been working.

The real winners here were the companies that benefitted from the advertising dollars.

"Both sides spent millions in recent months on TV ads. Opposition to vouchers was primarily funded by teachers unions, with the National Education Association spending nearly $3.2 million on the campaign against vouchers.

Overstock.com founder and CEO Patrick Byrne and his family were the primary financiers behind the pro-voucher commercials, donating more than $2.7 million of the $3.8 million raised by Parents for Choice in Education. Out-of-state conservative think thanks donated much of the rest."

7 million dollars into the states economy! That's wonderful!!
