He has less inhibiting him than Giuliani or Bloomberg did. They can’t call him racist, and unlike the last black mayor David Dinkins, he’s no wuss. He’s a veteran cop who won’t put up with crap from the likes of Sharpton and his fellow travelers. He’s a Dem, so moderate Dems who are sick of living in fear will back him.
So it’s likely he’ll do what he said he’d do.
I’m taking a wait and see attitude.
