“You need to stop giving us grades,” he said to the business leaders assembled at the Challenger Learning Center, before stopping himself and shifting direction. He said, “Don’t pick on my administration. I am pretty defensive about my team.”

Our directors, our cabinet members, that have given up, you know, a lot of their personal time to travel this great state to do that.”
