Dixon and O'Malley: Partners in progress?

I wonder how this quote from Sheila Dixon's WJZ interview last night went over in Government House: "In the past two years, I've done more than my predecessors have in 12 or seven years," Dixon said.

That would be the tenures of Kurt L. Schmoke (12 years) and Martin O'Malley (7 years). You may recall that O'Malley fellow has moved on to another job...what was it? Oh yes. Governor. You know, the guy who's responsible for putting about $1.1 billion in direct aid to Baltimore City in the state budget.

This is more fun then reading War and Peace.

The comments by Mayor Dixon are dead on!
No micromanager here!
She has been a solid mayor!
However
if found guilty she has to go!
No one is above the law!
