BOB: For starters, why did she fire the police chief?
[CAPTION: Because he was out of town 40% of the time]

[CAPTION: because she had to wait for the chief and his 2 top deputies to fly back into town from a conference in Dallas]
BOB: Does the mayor even have a public safety plan?
[CAPTION: crime rates are down in all categories this year]
