Reigning in Hell

Instapundit Glenn Reynolds is on a roll today, check out his description of the lefty leadership of most of our large cities.

As the trajectory of many big cities has shown, their leaders would rather reign in Hell than serve in Heaven. So I don’t expect these policies to change from within. And I think creating “conditions peculiarly ideal for left-wing agitation,” is seen as a feature, not a bug.

I’m thinking Rahm Emanuel has found being Chicago’s mayor largely a reign in Hell. Sort of like being Admiral of the sewage lagoon. Can he possibly enjoy it?
