A national perspective on Rybak and his colleagues

Minneapolis Mayor R.T. Rybak is among three chief executives profiled in an article by Christian Science Monitor writer Harry Bruinius. All three mayors have served for a dozen years and are on their way out of office.

The article, "In three US cities, three longtime mayors prepare exits. What legacies?", casts Rybak, New York's Michael Bloomberg and Boston's Thomas Menino as the boss, the billionaire and the hipster. Guess which one is the hipster.

Buinius joins The Daily Circuit to share his views about the mayors and their legacies.
