Mayor Daley Will NOT Run For Re-Election (Updated)

The long, dark nightmare is over. September 7, 2010 - 1:40 PM - Mayor Daley of Chicago will NOT run for a seventh term. Listen to Mayor Daley's announcement (mp3) at WLS. Chicago Breaking News has a little blurb about this, as do the Chicago Sun-Times and WSJ's MarketWatch, and CBS2 has a nifty video report with Skippy Jacobson. Watch for ad nauseum analysis beginning this afternoon about Daley's career as Da Mare. (Our own speculation: His internal polling showed that he could not have won.)
