Why can't we just trust Mayor O'Malley
Last night, the Baltimore City Council called for a task force, made up of academics, to audit the crime statistics being reported by the city. Mayor charges smear tactics - baltimoresun.com
The Mayor, a Democrat, opposes this plan The city council is made up of Democrats. But….“O'Malley said calls for audits of the city's crime statistics were a blatant political move..”
Of course, one of the Mayor’s first moves as mayor was to have an audit done on the city’s crime statistics from the prior year. Not surprisingly, that audit led to a significant increase in those statistics….meaning any subsequent drop in crime would seem that much more dramatic.
Yep – he could be my next governor.
