"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who,at the best, knows , in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

You must be delusional enough to think that applies to you. After the lies you told during the campaign particularly about crime statistics you should hang your head in shame. To "strive valiantly" does not include lying and denegrating the men and women in blue which you did by lying about crime statistics, which youv'e done again and again. You aren't the only person in this city who gives of themselves,some do it without any desire for fanfare or recognition...
