And now, a recap of the 2011 Chicago mayoral election from @MayorEmanuel:"If you have a giant fucking pile of money and a bunch of dumb fucks running against you, dreams do come true." Okay, fine, that's not the real Rahm Emanuel (it's his Twitter impersonator, a local college professor), but that doesn't make it any less true. In the race for Chicago's top job, Rahm absolutely Rahminated the competition?one opponent called him "a buzz saw," another said campaigning against him was like "running face-first into a gale-force wind." On election night, David Axelrod called him "a heat-seeking missile: He sets his objectives, and then he achieves them." Rahm may indeed be all these things (the world's first heat-seeking, gale-force politician!), but Chicago's problems won't be as easily...
