User ID: 1085166 United States 09/07/2010 03:13 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Breaking: Chicago Mayor Daley Says he Won't Seek Re-election Mayor Richard Daley says he will not run for re-election in 2011, saying it's "time for me, it's time for Chicago to move on." "The truth is I have been thinking about this for the past several months," Daley said at a City Hall news conference. "In the end this is a personal decision, no more, no less." His wife Maggie stood by his side with the help of a crutch, smiling broadly as the mayor continued: "I have always known that people want you to work hard for them. Clearly, they won't always agree with you. Obviously, they don't like it when you make a mistake. But at all times, they expect you to lead, to make difficult decisions, rooted in what's right for them. "For 21 years, that's what I've tried to do," he said. "But today, I am announcing that I will not seek a 7th term as mayor of the city of Chicago. "Simply put, it's time," said Daley, 68. "Time for me, it's time for Chicago to move on."

Apparently a co-worker has ties to an Alderman, who advised me this was coming. Didn't believe it, didn't dismiss it, turned out to be true..) |

The virtue of courage is a prerequisite for the practice of all other virtues, because otherwise one is virtuous only when virtue has no cost. There are times when something needs to be done, and yet we know that if we step up and do this needful thing, we will pay a heavy personal price. -C.S. Lewis |
