I never said crime rates before Rudy were the highest they'd ever been. I said they got a lot lower under his leadership. That's what I said, and it's true.
So according to you guys, everything good that happens under a Republicans watch, the credit goes to the last democrat to hold that office. And everything bad that happens under a Republican's watch, is 100% the fault of that Republican. Do I have that right?
Sounds fair!

But your claim about rudy doesn't show anything about what a city can do bc many other cities (and states) had very similiar reductions in crime.
Under his watch they did develop compstat which was shown to reduce crime.
