CBS Chicago: Mayor Rahm Emanuel Planning To Run For Third Term

It's probably always smart for an unpopular politician who has to tackle some important issues to state their future plans which is to stay in the game. We've heard earlier this year how unpopular the mayor is but with the budget impasse in Springfield and the need for a city to increase revenue is it in his best interest to be seen as a lame duck?

Those who don't like the mayor may have a problem with him even thinking about a third term, but let's remember he still won a second term.

EDIT 11:49 AM There's a growing fued between the Mayor and Governor. Even though they represent different parties during last year's campaign it came out they were buddies of sorts. Of course when it comes to politics things change. It appears in the press they're trading barbs according to the CapFax.
