Senator Campfield You Are Recognized
By Kleinheider Posted on May 1, 2008 at 12:46 pmGet ready for those words, because your favorite blogging legislator maybe getting an opportunity to embiggen his terrority:
State Sen. Tim Burchett is being recruited to run for Knox County Mayor in 2010. The popular senator is considered the best candidate to restore some sort of stability to county government in the wake of financial scandals and political gridlock. He is also considered the best candidate to fend off a possible bid by former Sheriff Tim Hutchison.
That leaves an open senate seat. State Rep. Stacy Campfield, R-Knoxville, is expected to run for the seat. County Commissioner Greg “Lumpy” Lambert is also being recruited to run against him. Conservatives suspect the Lambert recruiters may be trying to split the conservative vote with Campfield and leave the way open for a third candidate.

Bigger district. I don’t know about this. I need to read his stars.
You know Kenny Chesney’s stars said watch out for foot injuries, and look what happened.
If Stace could lose the outdated anti-abortion fanaticism his party has exhausted, his creativity and true conservatism might take him higher still.
I believe that, too, Wintermute.
