I can hear Daley singing the song now...”Dance Ballerina Dance”.

[dr_who]

"He's said, 'The job of chief of staff is an 18-month job, it's a burn-out job.' He's made it quite clear that he's not happy and that he's totally stressed all the time and that he's thinking of running for mayor of Chicago," Quinn said.

He talks big but he's a sissy. Typical lefty, eh?

I heard someone predict Tom Daschle.

Since the implementation of Obama policies would bankrupt this nation and lead it into another Depression, it's appropritate he would have a Chief of Staff who is always "deeply saddened."

That is probably true. But one wonders why this is being floated now—especially given the trouble Onada’s usurped administration is in. So far at least three dems have announced they will retire or otherwise not run again. Now we have Emanual deserting the Onada ship. His alleged frustration with Israel is not the reason he signed on with Onada. He signed on to make America a Marxist regime.

The question: Why would Emanual be considering taking on the Daley machine now?

[DesScorp]

Looks like Rahmbo may want to bolt D.C. along with all the other Dems that are leaving before the ship sinks.

[dools007]

This is plausible. Especially in light of Emanuel’s failure to ram Onadacare through.

It begs the question: Who exactly is pulling Onada’s strings? I thought it was Emanuel acting on his own or as a surrogate for someone else—Soros, for example.

As for Emanuel’s replacement, my money is on Al Franken.

This would be an enormous blow to the dims and certain signs of impending implosion...especially within the context of all the other retirements.

Rahm sees the handwriting on the wall and wants to bail.......already!

Whatever else you may say about Emanuel, the man knows an opportunity when he sees it......and he knows when that opportunity is about to self-destruct.

He'll wait until January 21, then jump so that he can say he stuck with it for over a year.

[seoul62]

Please someone tell me that there is an honest, not on the take politican in Chicago? Is it true that nothing can be done or accomplished without the Machine’s approval?

[Toddsterpatriot]

If he'd have gotten the Olympics, I think he'd have gone out on a high note. Now I think he'll leave with all the grace of Hillary after GWB won.

Kicking and screaming or under arrest. Should be fun.

In the shoes of Big Bill Thompson

I think the Daley’s and group are crooked as a Z, I also think Rahm is crooked too, and a whole lot meaner. It will be fun to watch the bloodbath. Champagne and popcorn time.

[tillacum]

If it’s daschle, it proves nobama likes really short c.o.s.

Humming the theme song from the “Godfather”.........

[wbarmy]

I don't think Obama is going to dump Rahm. I think it is another rat leaving a sinking ship.

[kempster]

Chicago won’t even notice a difference.

Emmanuel, go, you snake, that is where you belong among the other crooks and snakes.

[SeattleBruce]
