DescriptionChicago mayor and former Obama chief of staff Rahm Emanuel isn’t turning his back on a possible run for the White House in 2016.

“I got a job to do here, and that’s all I’m focused on,” he told ABC News’s George Stephanopoulos, who said to Emanuel that a lot of Democrats might be talking about him making a presidential bid in five years, in an interview that aired Wednesday morning.

Stephanopoulos asked again — “never think about it?” With a big smile on his face, Emanuel responded: “You know my wife, no,” as both men broke out in laughter.

But Emauel’s answer wasn’t an absolute “no” and might have moved him a little closer to considering a bid than he was a few weeks ago.
