Get The Fuck Out

I wonder what industry you cut a deal with to become mayor of Chicago?

White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel is expected to announce Friday that he is leaving the Obama administration to consider a campaign for mayor of Chicago.

Though ABC News reports that he has yet to make a final decision, speculation has swirled around Emanuel's possible run for the Chicago mayoralty -- a stated goal of his -- since longtime Mayor Richard M. Daley announced he would not seek another term.

And the decision is all but final, CNN reports. According to a prominent Democrat close to Emanuel, "we see nothing that will stop a run. But you don't announce a campaign for Mayor of Chicago in Washington, D.C. You leave and go home and finish your business there."
