The Mayor of Chicago Rahm Emanuel came by my job, still can’t stand this muthafucka tho

A prediction I’d pretend I hadn’t made, if not for the fact that Peter Holderness—the world’s greatest videographer—was on hand to record it. Here, check it out.
I figured the lefty vote—whatever it is—was a lock for Chuy. Then I read the article by Micah Uetricht, associate editor of In These Times, about GQ.
Uh-oh, uncertainty in the ranks. Score one for Rahm.
This is a surprising nonendorsement from Pope, who’s pretty much been a loyal mayoral rubber stamp since Rahm took office.
It’s bad news for Chuy if he can’t win the votes of parents whose schools under Rahm barely have enough money for janitors.
