Rahm Emanuel, thief

White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel might have to worry a little bit about his landlord.

Pollster Stan Greenberg, in whose basement Emanuel stays when he’s in Washington, complained to Washington Whispers that Emanuel had often stolen the newspapers from the house Greenberg shares with his wife, Rep. Rosa DeLauro (D-Conn.).

“He absolutely steals my newspapers,” Greenberg said. “There isn’t any question. It’s one of the points of contention.”

Now that Emanuel works in the White House, though, Greenberg thinks things might get better.

“The White House is much better on him having his newspaper, so on the newspaper issue, there’s less contention,” he added.
