The only thing that surprised Rahm is that Mayor Daley rolled this easily...

I thought Rahm wanted to run for Illinois Governor.

Oh Please. Like the Chicago thugs don’t know what is going on in Chicago?! This is so scripted. Rahm to the rescue from the “stunned WH”.

OK gang, so why is he REALLY quitting now?

Good questions. It could be resign or get indicted. Maybe Chicago is going in the sewer fast and he wants to get out now. There are big problems facing the city and wants out. The list could go on.

I think that office is permanently behind bars. Chicago Mayor is where the money keeps flowing.

Nothing surprising here....The WH and Rahm were advised of this...probably weeks ago.

So the Dems can get someone in his place who will make sure all the graveyard votes are counted in 2012.

Told to quit by the White House so Rahm could make a graceful exit, saving face for Obama against charges of making a poor decision hiring Rahm in the first place.. It’s not really a “throwing” under the bus...more like an “inserting.”

He is nearly as big a scumbag as his worthless father and that’s saying something. Good riddance.

Many think it’s because someone has something on him.

It could be that or that he sees the ponzi scheme aka socialism imploding - govt unions to finally get what’s coming to them ... and there’s no way he wants to be around (and held accountable) when the feces hits the rotating device.
