In an interview last night on "Charlie Rose," White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel said that he wants to be mayor of Chicago -- something that has been long rumored.

Said Emanuel:

I hope Mayor Daley seeks re-election. I will work and support him if he seeks re-election. But if Mayor Daley doesn't, one day I would like to run for mayor of the City of Chicago.  That's always been an aspiration of mine even when I was in the House of Representatives.
