A new mayor with no experience in the inner workings at the city would have a pretty steep learning curve. It's not like they can come into the role and start making wholesale changes. Someone that understands the system the way it stands now would have much more opportunity to cut the fat. The city is very complex and not as easy to change as you might think when you take into account the union environment.

And I'm not trying to say that I'm voting for Ric here but I could easily see a candidate like Higgins get bogged down in the process and become irrelevant if in the mayors chair.
