So Bing didn't solve every problem. The question is did he solve some problems? Did he solve enough problems.
Its oh, so early to criticize. Very hard to get things done. Ask Pugh. Everyone wants to make a difference. Few can.
Bing's far from great -- but he seems to be doing alright. And as CTY said earlier, you'll only see the results of what he's done in about 12-18 months. We do ourselves real hard by tearing apart every politician for not doing things our way and getting results NOW. If Bing's responsible for outsourcing payroll to ADP and taking the cost per check from around $20 per check down to $1 or $2 per check saving a reported $10m a year. He's doing exactly what he should do. If we overpaid payroll by $10m a year for the last decade, that was $100m dollars that could have been doing something productive.
I'd rather see dull and effective than glamorous and corrupt.
