Rahm Emanuel Runs for Mayor of Chicago

Tough Audience
Though Emanuel may have strong credentials, nothing in Chicago politics is easy. The candidate's rivals say that he will introduce taxes on services like gym membership and haircuts, while the police and firemen have pointedly failed to endorse him. The firefighters are a particularly hard sell, as Emanuel has hinted that there are too many of them and that their ranks could be reduced.
