Picture this:

Ambitious NY prosecuting attorney, wet behind the ears, gets hired by Reagan's justice department. Most legal work is not done grandstanding in front of a grand jury - it's grinding, pedantic, detail-centered work.

Fast forward. Ambitious young attorney breaks (well, to a point) the Mafia in our nation's largest city. Many are no longer victims of extortion and neighborhoods are no longer unilateral homogeneous centers of vice, drugs, and crime. Said young attorney enters politics.

Ambitious young former Federal prosecutor becomes Mayor of New York City.

Life is fluid, Sir. You speak to the room, but your record speaks for itself louder.

You left out soooo much in your story: While he was the “Republican Mayor” of New York City he appointed more than 60 men and women to the Civil, Criminal, and Family Court benchs. In all of those judicial appointment not one of them was a Republican.

All of his judical appointments were either registered Liberals or registered Democrats. As the “Republican Mayor” he had appointment power over more than 70 full commissioners in more than 50 City agencies, yet at no time during his administration did REPUBLICANS account for more than 10% of those appointments.

He even appointed Chuck Schumers wife as the City’s Department of Transportation Commissioner.

His track record:

He appointed liberal judges,
he appointed corrupt cops (google Kerik)
he embraced every form of abortion
he accepted monies from NARAL
he sued gun companies
he embraced the 'gay' agenda
he defied the federal laws on immigration
he avoided military service

Sorry. He is a RINO.
