Zais Better Represents SC Than Haley

What is this liberal groaning over the nomination of former SC education chief Mick Zais to the number two job at the US Department of Education under Betsy DeVos? What, she should work with liberals?

At least our local rag recognizes that Nikki Haley's being passed over for Secretary of State is a blessing. For us, dopes, not her!

"The former Newberry College president regularly feuded with teacher groups and members of the state Board of Education. He spent extensive time grappling with federal bureaucracy. Supporters and critics alike say Zais was never able to fulfill some of his biggest ambitions for the job."

"Now, the 70-year-old ex-Army general is coming out of retirement for a chance to ascend to the second-ranking role at the U.S. Department of Education. This time he'll get to link arms with like-minded proponents of smaller government in an effort to pursue the changes he always wanted. In keeping with a trend across the Trump administration, Zais would serve as another high-ranking official inside a Cabinet agency who has battled with that same agency in the past, lambasting what he views as federal overreach."

More power to him!
