Are liberals in denial about losing Common Core?

Democrats and liberals in South Carolina's media are praying to their secular god of printed newspaper, that Common Core will not be affected by the state Legislatures vote to eliminate Common Core.
The legislation passed ends Common Core, and replaces it with state-originated standards.
The bill to end Common Core in SC requires a panel of educators, parents, and community and business leaders to begin reviewing South Carolina’s math and reading standards by January. The new standards will be approved by the state Board of Education and the independent Education Oversight Committee. Liberal AP reporter Seanna Adcox  has found education industry insiders (like Melanie Barton, director of the Education Oversight Committee) to - in effect-say the Common Core-ending legislation is unrealistic. Formerliberal democrat Sen. Brad Hutto says that the announcement that Common Core is ending is political spin.  But Sen. Larry Grooms, R-Berkeley, said:  We’re getting out of Common Core and will write our own standards” Adcox, the media and AP side with Hutto. That is no surprise. But when you look at the success of the democrat party in South Carolina, it is foolish to side with the democrats. They have been rendered unfit by the state's voters. Yet Republicans have been successful at stopping government-funded homosexual propaganda themes at College of Charleston and USC-Upstate. And The polarizing Gender Studies program was eliminated at USC-U earlier this year. Those are BIG successes for Republicans. So I would not bank on Common Core being kept, when you consider that the GOP is in control, and Common Core has a LARGE target on it.
