"Rhee Says She's On The Hook For A Fenty Loss
If Mayor Adrian M. Fenty loses his 2010 re-election bid, he will have someone to officially blame--besides himself. D.C. Chancellor Michelle A. Rhee told an audience at the Newseum Friday afternoon that she would feel 'very responsible' if he served only one term.
The admission came at the Bloomberg Washington Summit, a day-and-half series of journalist-conducted conversations with CEOs, elected officials and assorted big thinkers. During her appearance, Washington Post editorial writer Jonathan Capehart reviewed some of the flashpoints of her eventful tenure--including school closures, central office firings and teacher layoffs--and concluded that while she's 'broken some dishes in this town and a lot of folks aren't happy' she still enjoyed the full support of the mayor who appointed her."
........Pressed for details about her recent engagement to Sacramento mayor and former NBA star Kevin Johnson, she said they would discuss a wedding date this weekend and that the imposing diamond on her finger was three carats. Of Johnson's proposal, she said only:
"I have to say it was very effective."
