Mayor’s Rating Up; Poll Sees Deep Split on School Policies. Cool. I was one of the poll participants, and perhaps unsurprisingly, I am one who approves of Bloomberg’s performance. On the other hand, I find that “[New Yorkers] are still afraid of another terrorist attack” is not a particularly accurate conclusion to draw from a yes response to the question “do you think New York is more likely to be the target of a terrorist attack than other cities?” Too bad the article omitted the responses gauging our views of the President’s performance and of the plan to hold the RNC in New York.
