Charter management group just might help Milwaukee schools

Alan Borsuk:

First, a lesson from baseball: It was roughly a year ago that Brewers fans were wringing their hands that the pitching was bad and there was little prospect for fixing that in the off-season, given a weak free agent scene and limited finances. Now, the Brewers have pitching that is basically amazing.

Sometimes, things do improve dramatically. Sometimes, that happens even when there are sound arguments for why they won't.

I could write this entire column - if not a book - on why I'm pessimistic about things getting a lot better on the Milwaukee education scene. I would present a pretty sound case, too.

Maybe I'm wrong. In fact, I hope I'm wrong. I'd like to see things take off like a rocket ship.
