In a way, it's a perfect setup for wholesale political change. The power structure, when forced to cut, always cuts the sections of government that actually do something important. This time around, when they pull that crap, citizen bloggers should identify all the deadwood patronage positions that were protected and blame the existing politicians for the problems from the police cuts. That will resonate.

That's right keep the bureaucrats and keep paying the retired city workers the exorbitant pensions you passed a few years ago. You know, “You can pay me now, or you can pay me later.” Guess what Columbus, It's later.
