New Yorkers souring on how Bill de Blasio has run the city
Hot Air ^ | December 12, 2014 | Noah Rothman

With only weeks before New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio’s first year in office comes to a close, the Big Apple’s voters are starting to sour on their famously progressive mayor.

While a majority of voters continue to approve of the job the mayor has done in office (52 percent, according to the latest New York Times/Siena poll), a figure that remains largely unchanged from an April Siena poll, voters are turning on how the city is managed.

52 percent say that de Blasio’s New York City is on the “wrong track.” Only 41 percent disagree. That is a near perfect reversal from April when 51 percent said that the city was on the “right track” and only 42 percent disagreed. That’s the highest level of dissatisfaction with the state of the city this poll has registered since 2011.

To paraphrase HL Mencken and Ed Koch, NYers voted for this Sandanista and now they must pay the consequences. Embrace the Suck NYers!

NYers begged for it. And it was never any secret he was this way.

So they can eat it and choke on it. They deserve a double helping of what the commie is dishing out.

You get what you pay for. (Maybe that is why he is building a higher wall around the NYC royal mansion).

Odds that New Yorkers will learn their lesson? Pretty close to zero.
