Rahm's Poll Numbers Tanking
- Only one in five Chicago voters credit Mayor Rahm Emanuel with doing a better job of running the city than Richard M. Daley did, and only 29 percent would support him if the mayoral election were held today.
Those are the results of a new poll conducted for Early and Often, the Chicago Sun-Times’ political portal. The telephone survey of 511 registered Chicago voters who said they were “very likely” to go to the polls on Feb. 24 was conducted Wednesday by the firm of McKeon and Associates.
“Right now, Rahm is not connecting. If he doesn’t do that, he’s gonna lose,” McKeon said.
Well, nothing in the report says they surveyed the graveyards of Chicago. Nor the people who actually count the votes. And if we have another turnout like last election, 29% might actually win the thing.
Color us skeptical of the whole thing. Unless he fires McCarthy....and shuts down the blog. Then he might get 30%.

I am sure they can find a more corrupt Democrat than Rahm to run. It is Chicago after all.
Daley won with ease and he didn't connect with people besides the people he took care of. Isn't that what Rahm is doing?
He'll win without a challenge. Get used to it. He's here for as long as he wants.
The tag line 'it's for the children' is becoming a huge joke in this town. Even little old ladies are mocking his b.s. 'it's for the children' line. A relative from Libertyville was driving us to lunch yesterday and she pointed at one of the cameras and mugged, 'it's for the children' and laughed and laughed the next couple of blocks. Rahm has become a punchline.
Hahahahahahaha. Rahm=worst mayor in Chicago in my life. Gene Sawyer was even better!
Rahm's job was to cover up the crimes of daley and he is doing just fine.
He knows he is done, that's why he wants to borrow that billion dollars... To steal as much as Daley did in 20 years
Trib blocked this story. Had to do a lot of searching to bring it up.
Three days after the Chicago Tribune published a brutal take-down of Rahm Emanuel -- dubbing the Democratic mayor a "walking personality disorder" -- the conservative-leaning newspaper has posted a fiery response from Emanuel ally David Axelrod.
"I appreciate fair commentary, even when it singes. But I take strong exception to Kristen McQueary's column on Wednesday, a snide and gratuitous screed on the performance of our current mayor," writes Axelrod, former advisor to President Obama and current director of the Institute of Politics at the University of Chicago.

"I've known and worked with Rahm Emanuel for more than 30 years. He is a smart, high-energy, impatient, plain-spoken and very committed leader, whose in-your-face bluntness very much matches the tenor of the town he leads. Sometimes those qualities grate. Most of the time, however, it is his strong-willed nature that leads to progress," says Axelrod, who once covered City Hall for the Trib during his days as a political reporter.
In her eye-popping hit piece, McQueary -- an editorial board member at the paper -- scolded Emanuel for failing to match his sharp-tongued swagger to his political performance since taking office three years ago.
She wrote, "His arrogance is oversized for the record he has amassed. He's beyond bossy. He's a walking personality disorder. But his audacity exceeds his accomplishments. That's a dangerous combination."
The hits kept coming as McQueary issued a seemingly endless laundry list of complaints against the mayor. Among them: Borrowing nearly a billion dollars for infrastructure maintenance; earmarking taxpayer money for a Marriott and sports arena in the South Loop; spending too much dough on bike lines amid a looming pension crisis, and not doing enough to curb the city's endemic violence.
"He has no discernible strategy to rescue the South and West sides from cancerous gang activity and crime," she sniped. "He would rather focus on the well-to-do regions of the city. If one of his drivers plopped him at a South Side intersection, he would need Google Maps to get back home."
Jumping to Emanuel's defense, Axelrod blasts McQueary for omitting "the mayor's vigorous and successful efforts to bring new businesses and thousands of jobs to our city" and trivializing the "politically difficult steps he has taken" on pension reform.
As for her Google Maps quip, Axelrod states that "to suggest that the mayor has been indifferent belies his commitment of police and other resources to the neighborhoods that have become war zones."
He continues: "And if McQueary believes the mayor does not spend time in these neighborhoods, perhaps she should leave Tribune Tower from time to time and travel the city with him."
Meanwhile, McQueary is tweeting up a storm. She appeared on WGN Radio's Bill and Wendy show on Friday, posting beforehand: "I will try not to be snide or gratuitous. But no promises."
She also retweeted a missive from Trib columnist John Kass supporting her for "telling the truth."
There's the truth and then there's referring to someone as a "walking personality disorder" in the city's courtly and supposedly sophisticated newspaper of record.
That's a new level of bold.
He will never fire the big guy and he will never shut down the blog. He will claim the blog is being done by underground democrats. His poll numbers will go up just before election. People will believe anything. After all 40% still love and think Obama is doing a great job of leading the country.
Tiny Dancer could have 0% of voters support him, but who knows who (if anyone) else runs.
He gone.
Hopefully, the stupid, white, blue-collar, "we're old school democrats" will wake up and vote this good out of office. Hey other-agency city workers....this guy is trying to take your pension. Tell the precient captain to go screw himself. Open your eyes.
Between the Irish Polish German Italian cops in this city some family member has to run against our mayor and win the vote and save this city from the ghetto movement that is spreading. Enough!
Right now, the only thing worse than Rahm is Prickwinkle.
Rham a Fink He's a Rat just like the blow up rat when he announce Labors Union had it right. He's moving on to greener pastures and wont run again. He wants another title in national govt
His numbers may be low now, that will not stop him. Rahm is on his way to the White House. In the near future, he is going to be the big enchilada, ruling over us all.
"511 registered Chicago voters"?
Right, and what about the 3 million unregistered voters.....the ones who don't have to prove who they are??? Wonder who they will vote for.
Read the article "Psychopaths in Chief", James G. Long.
Americanthinker.com, 10 Aug 12
Today's corporate culture is based on rapid movement rather then stability. High energy, zero ethics, psychos are well suited to this modern environment in business/government because they can make the big scores and be gone by the time the organization crashes.
Dr. Clive Boddy makes the case that the financial collapse of 2008 was caused by these people.
Emanuel and Rod Blagojevich are cited as probable organizational psychopaths in the article.
The only way Emanuel can be defeated is through a broad left/right coalition because he is enriching the world's elites and has unlimited resources from the region itself, Hollywood, DC, and beyond.
He is angling to be POTUS nominee when the Hillary campaign implodes.
FOP should be running a voter registration drive.
Pretty soon, this 'mayor' will be spinning his approval numbers. 'My ratings are skyrocketing...just like shootings are declining...' Yawn...we're used to your sneaky tricks by now.
That for sure shows a definite decrease in the increase of people hating Rahmbo. Or is it a decrease in the increase of people hating Rahm. Anyhow, it's nice to see more and more people seeing through his BS.
Turn Out will be the issue, because he was elected by less than 20% of the eligible voters. And remember, Preckwinkle thinks there are too many people of color in the jail so she is a Moron. Apparently she thinks the police just lock people up, disregarding the conduct that warrants arrest. Unless someone new shows up, like a Chico; we are screwed.
It sort of pisses me off that a republican never even tries to run for office in this city. Yeah I know they might think it would be throwing good money to bad, but to not even try makes them look weak.
But maybe having a Democrat mayor in office here in Chiraq makes the Republicans look good.
Who is gonna beat him?
Miguel del Valle?
Carol Mosely Braun?
Ha ha ha ha ha!

It's not just her. It's everyone else in town who's "responsive and ambulatory," everyone who's not on crack or something.
"...it is [Emanuel's] strong-willed nature that leads to progress," says [David] Axelrod."
We got a situation like "SQUAD. >pant< THEY'RE RUNNING THROUGH THE YARDS. >gasp< GET SOME MORE CARS OVER HERE..." and in one day the mayor banned plastic grocery bags, came down hard on ride-sharing companies, and tightened restrictions on pedicab drivers.
...and French clowns on fifty-foot stilts are coming next...
anybody but rahm......

People here marked out that "MAYOR DALEY IS CLINICALLY INSANE" -- I mean badee, badoo, badoh -- years ago, and not a single "journalist of record" dared to take up that cudgel...
This just shows people are PISSED OFF about all these Speed and Red Light Camaras all over the city over a non existant problem he created! For the Children my butt! It's all about him and his campaign contributors making money off the people! Just like Daley, if he loses, Rahm will get a six figure job in a corner office and laughing all the way to the bank just like Scum Daley!
Rahm backs Hilary for Prez, hoping against hope that she will pick him for Vice Prez. He has persuaded the Democrat gumps in Springfield to pony up $100 mil for Obama's library - he could care less if the library is here - it was just a reminder to Valerie Jarrett that he can pull millions out of his ass whenever he wants to, because she is the real power in the White House. She is the one who will tell Hilary who the VP candidate will be.
As for the DePaul stadium, that was part of a deal with the Illinois Catholics. Their part: go along with converting their schools to charter schools. It is happening all over the country. When Catholic schools close and charters open in their places, they rent the property to the charter operators. All that remains is for Springfield to lift the limits on charter schools, and that's next.
I took an informal two question survey the other day. 1. Is Chicago toast? 2. Are you leaving Chicago after retirement?
100% of me surveyed answered yes to both questions.
Rahm is following the old school method for his regime and his campaign. Show up at 95th Red Line, kiss some black mothers, show up at Metra kiss the hands of the commuters, grab his cash from his brother's Hollywood friends, keep the unions at bay with his constant lies. What Chicago needs right now is a leader, there are tough choices to make but they are easier to swallow when you admit failure and fall on the sword. There are many people draining the pension fund, just as there are social programs that clearly should be eliminated. Put bodies back to work, there is a law on the book in Mass that allows ex offenders after 10 years with a clean record (depends on the offense of course and it is detailed) that puts people back to work, off the welfare, SSI and disability rolls, you then get insurance and are a productive citizen. Second, get rid of double and triple dipping. That hurts. Third, go after the illegal guns. California got it right, automatic time for discharge of a weapon, sorry, get mad all you want. But if Ray Ray has a pistol illegally and uses it, he pays the price. Stop the pork projects. CPS is a disaster but some schools have it right. Follow their plan system wide. CPS also tests too damn much. And for what? Kids are not being taught current skills. That is my rant.
29% seems awful high for me. But I can't see anyone beating the 9 digit midget. Preckwinkle is a fucktard, Lewis is a moron... We might be stuck with this asshole another term.
Vote him out ? Who are you going to vote for? Nine months from an election and is anyone even thinking about running against him? He is as close to running unopposed as Daley ever was. He is king for as long as HE wants to be.
Right now Prekwinkle can walk away with the election. If she chooses not to run or is promised something to not run then the dynamic changes. Can still be some competition out there maybe Rielly or Fioretti but Prekwinkle wins hands down. So here goes a possible scenario: Rahm gets Prekwinkle to stay out of race and if Hillary gets the nod to run for Prez then Rahm gets tapped for VP and the city has special election and Prekwinkle walks into the office with all the support that was prearranged, agreed to for her not running against Rahm. All the while the democrat party stays in power and all factions stay together.
The key for Rahm is re-election if he doesn't get it he's history, damaged goods, it would show he has no drawing power amongst his own party. But rest assured McCarthy is gone after summer .....
His numbers are tanking indeed.
A little anecdotal evidence for you.
Last week, I was at the City Colleges graduation ceremony at the UIC pavilion. About 10,000 people in attendance, over half were black.
When the speaker first mentioned Rahm's name, it drew a round of boos, predominantly from the black audience. The speaker then went on to explain that Rahm could not attend, and that they had a pre-recorded message from the 9 digit midget that they would play on the jumbo-tron. Another round of boos from the black audience.
Reports say that Rahm's popularity is really tanking in the black community. Sure seemed to be true that day.
Emanuel can kick the can down the road for one more term to fool the low-information Democratic voters into voting for him. But by the end of that term the city's debt will Detroit-like and affect every aspect of municipal government. He'll bail, try for higher office and lose.
The Daley-Emanuel death spiral continues.
This is indeed good news to read. But as someone has already alluded to, I'll believe it, when I see it. I've learned to never underestimate the power of the uninformed & just plain stupid.
511 is hardly a significant sample size, even if randomly selected. Which I doubt it was.
irrelevant, our stupid citizens will vote him in again...Americans have proven time and time again how stupid and naïve they really are.
rahm=midget with napoleons complex..
If every City worker voted in the Mayoral election, we would be able to determine the winner of the race. Most of us all know what Rahm is trying to do with our pensions and future job security. DO NOT sit on the sidelines next election and vote him out.

Brothers Emanuel: What Did Rahm, Zeke And Ari's Mother Put In The Breakfast Cereal?
04/10/2013 3:36 pm EDT
"When the brothers were 6, 2 and 4, they marched unsupervised around the neighborhood, across streets and beneath underpasses. In family arguments, they were encouraged to curse to make their point. They battled at home (“we shed blood almost every day,” the oldest would later write) and were spanked periodically by a mother whose angry outbursts would lead her to yell “I hate all of you equally.”
Then there's the "family tendency towards dyslexia and ADHD..."
They're just "inventing themselves." Ezekiel has been on a tour to sell a new book, you see...it's about the Emanuels, of course.

They could so a poll one month before the election when Rahm's opponent is known. The results could be 100% for Rahm's opponent and yet somehow Rahm would win again.
The biggest pothole that needs to be filled in Chicago is Rahm's foul mouth. People see through the faker. He is an absentee mayor gone two to three weeks per month. He raises oodles of out of town money as he sell us off Chicago piece by piece. He has lined his pockets in public service and we all have higher bills to show for it. His ambitions are to return to D.C. and he only ran for mayor because Obama was going to kick him out of the White House at the behest of Valerie Jarrett.
@ 5/11/2014 12:44:00 AM Thanks for sharing the Kristen McQueary article. Axlerod's follow up the next day to defend the mayor churned my stomach. I got great pleasure when someone dug up an article dated from 2005 where Axlerod wrote a similar article defending Daley.
Anyways, thanks.

The Sun Times can run 1,000 articles saying Rahm is going to lose, HE WILL WIN IN A LANDSLIDE. The money is behind Rahm. He has huge name recognition.
Another poster already mentioned Preckinkle. Should she run I will put a Rahm sign in my yard. Rahm has no competition. He would crush anyone who dared to run anyway.
Mayor Little man. Someone on his security unit told me that he sits on a booster seat while driving around going thur red lights and speed cameras.Then he giggles like a little boy when the camera goes off.Isn't that so cute
Mayor Garrido?
David Axelrod is a political genius. He is so good that he can even get a real piece of stool shit elected and re-elected. He has done it numerous times for Daley, Emanuel and Obama. He might be the most dangerous and powerful person on the planet!!!!!!
Between the Irish Polish German Italian cops in this city some family member has to run against our mayor and win the vote and save this city from the ghetto movement that is spreading. Enough!
Are you for real? The idiots would still outvote us 100 to one. Rahm already hjas over 7 million in his warchest
It doesn't matter how low Herr Rahmeister's ratings tank. He will be re-annoited.
That is because there is NO democracy in Chicago. There is/was more in the Soviet Union.
What will happen is that there will be a few token challengers that will either be bought off or threatened with expulsion if they challenge. One may be allowed to make "credible" effort to make it appear that democracy still occurs in Chicago.
Since most Chicago voters say "Why bother?" the turnout will be very low. But Rahm will get enough sheeple to vote for him to get another term. He will get 70 of the vote....of the 20% that turns out.
If Rahm runs, Rahm wins. Simple as that
Shortshanks never had to call in the big guns during his re-election bids. Rahm is having Clinton over for an awesome matzo ball soup and hot corned beef sandwich.
That's desperation.
Watch for the messiah & co. to show up too, especially if the holy namesakes high school groundbreaking is upcoming this summer.
Anybody but Rahm - 2015
All I can say is when he first ran, my ward had about 80 percent Chico lawn signs. Mayor Arby's received nearly 80 percent of the vote in the ward. It's all on the up & up!
9.5 needs only enough support from the "little people" to allow him to walk over their cold, dead bodies to his national gig
Rahm is your ruler.
He wants your pension and contact cards.
Give them to him.
He is your master.
You are his bitch.
Be a good bitch.

Consider this. Rahm emmanuel sold us that red light cameras and speed cameras are for the safety of the children. A noble notion which is hard to counter. His security entourage blatantly disregarded the laws the common masses must abide by or face fines. And on rahm’s orders, he denied penalty payments or much needed revenue for the schools and the urban children on his executive orders. He has lots of personal wealth and campaign money at his disposal. You think he would do the right thing?
On the other hand the average middle class Joe six pack would have his personal property, his vehicle, seized by the city for non payments in a kind of a search and seizure type thing. Remember this is permissible under civil law not criminal law. Then if Joe six pack couldn’t pay the fines on time in this worst economy, the rate of return with fines and penalties puts the best efforts of the financial gurus on Wall Street to shame. The collection agencies then get involved and threaten negative reports to credit agencies for the city’s residents who are one check away from bankruptcy. Revenue generation is job #1 for the city by any means necessary.
How about property taxes which provide much needed revenue to operate the efficient, successful public school system. Rahm’s wife, the lovely miss lady Amy Rule, sets up a charitable trust with her now Congressman husband making their home in the 4200 block of North Hermitage property tax exempt denying much needed school tax funding “for the Children”. Kind of like tax evasion. This trust was spawned as rahm joined Congress in 1992 concocting more tax law while dodging his own property taxes. Rahm and his out of touch democrat comrades led an endless tax jihad against the middle class and the evil businesses. Amy Rule paid herself as head of the charitable organization, The rahm emmanuel and Amy Rule Charitable Trust. The remainder went to her synagogue as she is a recent convert to Orthodox Judaism. And lets not forget rahm is a multi-millionaire or the 1 %, so paying his fair share or sacrificing will not set him back. And he wants to run for president?
For the average Joe, don’t pay those property taxes and your property is sold for the outstanding taxes at auctions to select brokers and select connected law firms. Extremely profitable endeavors for these insiders. The county clerks collection efforts show no mercy. The average Joe is not connected and does not have access to scheister lawyers who know how to make property taxes go away through legal tricks and legal gimmicks. The same middle class that pays more for government obligations than food, shelter and basic necessities combined. The middle class wants CHANGE! Not coins in their pocket but a redirection of this out of touch government. One set of rules for the unwashed masses and another set for political elite. Hey rahm, we’ll do as you say, not as you do. No wonder why he is so unpopular.

If they shut down the blog how will we get the "real" news?
This means nothing! If an election occurred tomorrow they would still vote to keep him in office. Lazy ignorant whiners
Stick a fork in Rahm - he's done.
Let's be totally (and brutally) honest.
Rahm did NOT impress me (or others) with his arrogant style of management.
I see Axelrod came to his defense.
Well, Axelrod was always good at trying to build something out of nothing and the same praise should go to him when it comes to trying to make Rahm sound like more of a success than what he is.
Rahm likes to pass judgement on others, but cannot stand to be measured himself.
He has not shown me any "great ideas" and to keep banging the same old songs out about gun control and skirting around the real issues, my conclusion is we cannot afford to give him another 4 years to polish up his act - because his act does NOT help a major city that is in trouble, let alone a country.
Time to find another candidate.
Fork you, Rahm.
Rahm's mug on the cover of the Sun Times is priceless!
Rahm ignored blacks and is still ignoring blacks with the high crime rate. Rahm is a one term mayor.
In an effort to appeal to African American voters, Rahm wanted to hire Bo Diddley to cut a campaign commercial for him. Unfortunately Bo Diddley died 6 years ago.
Its the economy stupid. Rahm,the city council, cook county, the state of illinois and the white house have failed to provide economic advancement to people of color. Rahm et.al. contribute to poverty through their own failed policy which breeds, cultivates and encourages violent crime by failing to promote constructive alternatives such as jobs.

Rahm has easily, since he's been in office, announced plans, initiatives, muni-private partnerships and in general pissed away about three to four times the amount of money due to be paid to our pension fund in the guise of the $600+ Million balloon payment that he constantly cries broke about...
Local media?

Meanwhile... Rahm hears the sound of a $25K plate being slid across a table somewhere on the North Shore or the Gold Coast.
He steps over these poor poor minority children, (whom he is on record as saying "...Won't amount to much." Unlike his freshly scrubbed and no doubt precious to HIM children) "greedy" policemen and firemen and THEIR undeserving of anything (but the taste of Rahm's back-hand slap across their mouths) wives and children...
"I'm gonna stick it in the cops ear..."
"You guys are gonna have to learn to bleed..."
Hey Rahm... Coppers and Firemen bleed in this city every day.
We of course, will never see YOU charge a burning house with people hanging out the windows screaming... Or you're too late but just in time to hear their final screams and see them burn to blackened skeletons hanging on to the burglar bars.
We CERTAINLY won't see you delivering law and order to your hard head, iron-legged, death worshipping constituency in Harrison, Austin, Englewood, Gresham etc... Right?
Perhaps because you're a typical left wing corporate money conjurer North Shore, classist and elitist in addition to being the nasty deeply closeted bigot and hater in denial of the worst sort... A left winger who is "down for the cause."
Your "Conquer Chicago, Then The Nation" plan was flawed... You blew into town and picked very unnecessary fights with union member muni employees while giving shielding, comfort and distance to the immediate past regime that is SOLELY RESPONSIBLE for financially destroying this city.
You cry like a whore and intentionally point the finger of blame at the wrong people in hope the public buys into your misdirection.
That's very telling... Did your survey people tell you that all Chicagoans are as dumb as you wished they were?

The prick mayor was at the Blackhawks game on Sunday. Right on the glass. He must have bought them on Stubhub or something. TV had cameras on him.
Nelson Mandela was a self comfessed terrorist who plead guilty to 150 terrorist crimes including bombings that killed and maimed women and children and policmen and soldiers. An avowed communist he left South Africa is economic shambles and record unemployment and inflation through the roof. He was offered early release many times but had to renounce terrorism which he would not do. In fact whenhe plead guilty of the crimes he committed in 1964 the world was shocked he did not get the death penalty for if those crime he committed were in the USA or England it would have been a capital punishment finding. Funny how people see what they want to see and believe what they want to believe in the face of facts.
