The incumbent Mayor of NYC is certainly making his rule seem a lot less incompetent.
There are many things I do not like about Bloomberg as Mayor. He is liberal in many ways. But I gotta give this to him — he took the “Safe Streets” legacy of Rudy Giuliani and made it better. NYC became one of the safest biggest cities in the USA and yes, even the world.
Now, all of that is coming apart with this current Mayor ( who the vase majority of New Yorkers DID NOT bother to vote for causing him to win by default ).
