Charles Thomas, Politician -vs- Mark Campen, Statesman

Interim City Councilman Charles Thomas who was appointed in January evidently likes the job. After telling the Council that he would not seek the election to the post this year, he has gone back on his word. Today, one hour and a few minutes before the deadline Thomas filed the necessary paperwork to have any write-in votes counted in the September 27 primary election. Currently, Mark Campen is the only qualified candidate, so if  Thomas finds enough people that wants to honor a person that in 7 months goes back on their word, then Campen will be forced to run with and against Thomas. However, the General election shouldn't be too hard. Campen can just look at Thomas and say to the voters, if you want a liar, there you go!

Charlie Thomas can't tell the truth. Campen should remind people that a man is only as good as his word.
