Watch: Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed Fires Back At Critics

You come at Kasim, you best not miss.

That’s the lesson for critics of Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed, who pulls no punches in this interview on V-103 Atlanta’s Ryan Cameron Morning Show.

As the race to replace the term-limited mayor heats up, Reed takes issue with some campaign rhetoric directed at him.

“That’s the way [candidates running for mayor] get in the newspaper or television… they say my name,” to stir up controversy.

After calling out the offending candidates by name, Reed continues: “Folks ought to run against the people running for mayor – because I’d beat them all.”

The mayor closes the interview by rattling off an impressive list of achievements during his tenure – and his sky-high, 68 percent approval rating.
