9. I saw an interview of Rahm Emanuel this morning -- he might have pulled it off.

I don't think that any of the current staff have the quintessential craziness.

Chief technology officer Aneesh Chopra would come to staff meetings and give uniformly upbeat reports, administration aides said. One time Emanuel looked at him and said: "Whatever you're taking, I want some."

A project management trouble shooter I knew was known as the "designated screamer". That was back in the day when Rahm's profanity wouldn't have been allowed.
