  • Two weeks after the runoff election, it’s sinking in that Chicagoans really did vote to keep Rahm Emanuel as mayor.

It’s been a little more than two weeks since the voters of Chicago—in their infinite wisdom—decided it would be a good idea to reelect Rahm Emanuel as their mayor.

Good thing the money’s not theirs.

It gives Mr. Mick Dumke and me plenty to talk about when we convene for our next First Tuesdays show at the Hideout.

I’m going to pretend that I didn’t predict Garcia would win. Instead, I’ll concentrate on all the aldermanic runoffs I correctly predicted.
