| Harmony may be shut down
Ohio Attorney General Marc Dann filed a lawsuit Friday seeking to shut down Harmony Community School, a charter school in Roselawn. Dann's suit claimed that the school has a record of academic failure, financial mismanagement, ethical lapses and consumer fraud. "Harmony has failed to accomplish its primary charitable purpose - educating students - despite receiving $31.9 million in taxpayers' money since 1998," Dann said during a news conference after personally filing the lawsuit in Hamilton County Common Pleas Court. .
A TV Ad For Obama
The opening salvo in the presidential air wars is a 30-second spot on health care to be broadcast in the Hartford-New Haven market and on cable systems in Fairfield County, said David Plouffe, Obama's campaign manager.
Plouffe declined to say if the campaign will invest in expensive television time in New York, the home turf of Hillary Rodham Clinton. But he said they will compete in New York, even if polls show they cannot win.
The winner-take-all rules of Republican primaries force GOP candidates to carefully target their resources, but the Democratic primaries are proportional races.
"You can aggregate delegates even in someone's backyard, like Sen. Clinton's," Plouffe said.
Plouffe called the Connecticut buy "substantial," but declined to give specifics.
