Time magazine pans Detroit mayor as one of country's worst
NEW YORK Time magazine has named what it calls the best and worst big-city mayors in America -- and the list isn't good for Detroit. The magasines' winners are: New York's Michael Bloomberg, Atlanta's Shirley Franklin, Baltimore's Martin O'Malley, Chicago's Richard Daley and Denver's John Hickenlooper.
And the three worst: Detroit's Kwame Kilpatrick, San Diego's Dick Murphy and Philadelphia's John Street.
Neither list was ranked, and the mayors were listed in alphabetical order.
The lists appear in the issue of the magazine that hits newsstands tomorrow.
Bloomberg and Murphy are Republicans. All the others are Democrats.
