The Knoxville News Sentinel gives some ink to the continuing feud between Rep. Kent Williams and Rep. Stacey Campfield:

Williams said he believes Campfield is not qualified and is ineffective as a legislator, but that he is not especially offended by some of the attacks.

“I grew up shining shoes, so that’s not a big issue with me,” he said, adding that Campfield is among state legislators “who need to grow up.”

“It’s like they’re playing high school games,” Williams said, adding that he considers himself a staunch Republican but willing to work with Democrats on a bipartisan basis after elections. “I think people are just sick of partisan politics.”

Campfield said Williams’ support for Leadbetter should be an asset to his re-election campaign.

“It just shows you who the conservative is in this race and who is going to support conservative ideals,” said Campfield in an interview.

“A Republican voting for Jimmy Naifeh is like a chicken voting for Colonel Sanders,” he said.
