Obama: Emanuel would be 'terrific mayor'

The AP reports:

Obama told ABC's "Good Morning America" that Emanuel was busy at the White House right now. The economy remains anemic and jobs scarce, and Democrats are scrambling to hold onto their majorities in the House and Senate with polls favoring Republicans in the Nov. 2 election.

"My expectation is, he'd make a decision after these midterm elections," Obama said. "He knows that we've got a lot of work to do. But I think he'd be a terrific mayor."
