Daley Global Cities Forum"},"content":{"rendered":"

WASHINGTON–White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel–whose ambition is to one day be Chicago mayor–will be in Chicago Tuesday to appear on a panel for the Richard J. Daley Global Cities Forum, named for the late Chicago mayor who is the father of the current Chicago Mayor, Richard M. Daley.<\/p>\n

Setting the record straight: Emanuel’s Chicago homecoming–taking place a week after his first public admission of interest in a mayoral bid–is a coincidence. Emanuel was booked for the panel months ago, I’m told by his spokesman–long before Emanuel said, on the record last week to Charlie Rose that one day he wanted to run City Hall. <\/p>\n

The global cities forum is co-sponsored by Chicago Sister Cities International and the University of Illinois at Chicago in conjunction with the World Organization of United Cities and Local Governments.<\/a>\n<\/p>\n
