You should review Janet’s response, compare the response and the decide. By the way when will the observer research the $19,000 in last minute donations from the senate political committees to Burns? You should also ask to see the candidate responses, sometimes its all political and common sense is thrown out the window. This is one of those situations.

Doug – Janet does not fit the job description. Kathy Burns is technically and professionally qualified to be Superintendent. Janet is technically qualified to be a politician. She might have been better off running for Ander Crenshaw’s House seat. I do agree in one respect – “…political and common sense (has been) thrown out the window.

Robert – you should ask Burns why she took $19,000 from 19 political committees and other special interests tied to the senate? So can you name three accomplishments that Burns has solved in the last 17 yrs? Does it matter she has never taught high school, middle school or been an administrator? Does it matter she is a 4th grade teacher who does not teach in Florida? Does it matter she is passing up qualified principals for the #3 post at the school district to bring in less qualified people from Camden? Have you looked at the math crisis powerpoint at http://www.janetadkins.com? Does it matter that 70% of students at West Nassau failed algebra? Does it matter she approved overspending on school construction at Wildlight beyond what state law allows? Are you troubled that while she was a candidate her campaign donors also got big payouts during the same time period? Are you OK with no bid contracts? Have you reviewed Janet’s plan at http://www.janetadkins.com and compared it to the “Burns Plan”?
