CLEVELAND -- Will Cleveland Mayor Frank Jackson have to break a sweat in his re-election campaign?

So far, no big-name candidates have emerged.

The mayor announced he's running again last Saturday.

He's dealing with a new problem, a possible big hole in his budget, because of a judge's ruling against the city for abusing the civil service system.

Many of you have bought cars from him. Now he's launching a drive to be your senator. Tom Ganley is close to launching his campaign to be the Republican nominee. What are his chances?

Every year, local lawyers perform skits lampooning local politicians and business leaders. We've got some highlights in a first-time-on-TV debut that could be called "Laughing on the Outside, Crying on the Inside."

Tom Beres discusses these topics with Channel 3 Political Analyst Bill Patmon and Plain Dealer Politics Writer Mark Naymik on this edition of Between the Lines.
