Description Among the quartet of major Cook County Democratic officeholders, known as the “Big Four” – Sheriff Mike Sheahan, Assessor Jim Houlihan, Treasurer Maria Pappas, and Clerk David Orr, all Chicagoans – there’s a sense of cautious expectancy, coupled with growing anxiety.

That anxiety, however, relates not to the November election, when each of the Big Four is seeking re-election; instead, it relates to the Feb. 25, 2003 Chicago mayoral election. Will Mayor Rich Daley seek re-election? And the expectation is that, if Daley doesn’t run, each of the Big Four would have a plausible chance of winning that big prize.

It should be emphasized that Daley, age 60, has dissembled and equivocated on his 2003 plans.
