It certainly doesn't mean that vouchers are a good idea. All vouchers do is funnel public money into private schools and worse, charter schools. I don't really get how that's a conservative idea; sounds like a colossal waste of money and misallocation of resources to me.

I agree. It's definitely not a conservative ideal. It's like a little kid moving his mashed potatoes around his plate in order to convince his Mom he's eaten everything.
