NCLB: "A Hostage of Fortune"

I get asked all the time about NCLB reauthorization and we talked about it in class this week (it's a law, I'm a law guy, I guess I am supposed to know that). I'm no expert for sure, but my standard response is 2010 at the soonest. I don't see any serious signs from the administration and although George Miller keeps saying it will be done this year, there is really no reason to believe that. So, since I am not an expert, I thought I would post this from a couple of, well, near-experts who have some insightful analysis of when we can expect reauthorization (ok, I will go ahead and ruin it ... 2010 right before mid-terms). But, its good analysis from real experts (i.e. not just my hunches), so enjoy.
