Odelson told Roe and Roeper on WLS Radio that when Emanuel leased out his Chicago home he could no longer claim he is a resident.
“He rented his house out in Sept 09 and has not been back since and has no residency in Chicago,” Odelson said.

Emanuel is an intelligent man and I am sure he would not have made this move had he not been eligible to do so.
The "messiah" says, 'Now is not the time to quit." And Rahm is leaving......good timing.
Thanks to Jay Leno for picking that up !!
He is not quitting. This has been something that he has wanted to do for some time. He is not the first Cabinet official to leave mid-term nor will he be the last. If elected he will be the mayor of one of the biggest cities in the country and will have people answering to him.
