Mayor Emanuel sees prize in Obama library, not bid for Olympics

Mayor Rahm Emanuel said Tuesday he doesn't have any plans to pursue future Olympic games for Chicago and sees a bigger payoff in landing the Obama presidential library and museum.
"I'm bidding on a presidential library," Emanuel said in Washington, where he gave two speeches Tuesday. "You all can have the Olympics."
The library would be "an Olympics with an annuity that gives every year," Emanuel said, citing a bump in tourism, economic development and job creation.
