Q&A with Rahm Emanuel: His first Chicago interview

Rahm Emanuel, a candidate for Chicago’s next Mayor, underwent his first recorded interview since launching his campaign. A City Hall Reporter asked questions regarding Emanuel’s former conversations with Rod Blagojevich and the convicted former governor's chief-of-staff. Emanuel answered every question asked about the controversies that have surrounded his candidacy. Towards the end of the interview Emanuel seemed to become very repetitive, always referring back to the important “fundamental questions” and his ties with the children's health care bill. When the reporter asked about his policy and budget plans, the former White House chief-of-staff answered with open-ended questions and examples of what he had already accomplished in Washington. Emanuel was also accused of being a lobbyist with unofficial actors that helped him get elected to Congress.
