Think so? Why? What votes, policies, positions, exactly do you think are so laughable? Why does Theriot bother you so much? Give examples of Theriot's narrow mindedness. Tell why you think Campbell is Conservative? And what do you mean by that term, anyway? Is Campbell a Conservative in the same sense as Bertrand or Patin is a Conservative? I know from reading the Independent that alot of people here would call a very leftist/liberal policy at the national level very "conservative" and "forward-thinking" at the local level. Please, elaborate. I would say that a Conservative candidate wants less debt, less taxes, regulation, and smaller government. Does Campbell want that for Lafayette? Or is he more like Durel, who would also call himself a "fiscal Conservative", but wants higher taxes, bigger government, more involvement of government in Lafayette, and 'public/private partnerships'. - ragin_cajun Thu, 21 Apr 2011 17:39:37 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8159-campbell-announces-for-cpc-9#comment-16916 Yes - you should keep re-writing the story until the voters believe....zygbt - ACORN Thu, 21 Apr 2011 15:54:57 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8159-campbell-announces-for-cpc-9#comment-16912 Theriot has replaced Dr. Williams as the joke of the council. Must be something about the name William. Mr. Campbell is a conservative that will work hard for this entire city and parish. Theriot is too narrow minded to be an effective councilperson. He and his little puppet, Bellard both need to go back to doing whatever it is they were doing and let real men sit in those seats. - For real Thu, 21 Apr 2011 15:39:06 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8159-campbell-announces-for-cpc-9#comment-16908 Any bets on who the leftists at the Independent are going to endorse? Save us the "suspense" now Walter and just get come out with it now :) - RCajunrunner Thu, 21 Apr 2011 14:17:45 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8159-campbell-announces-for-cpc-9#comment-16904 Campbell will walk away with the win. He is a hard worker, has won the Chamber's Ambassador award for his efforts with the business community and is very well known for his community service in this area. - Political observer Thu, 21 Apr 2011 12:52:37 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8159-campbell-announces-for-cpc-9#comment-16901 I already know how William Theriot votes, constantly conservative. So, for me, it's a no brainer. Go William!! - Taureau Thu, 21 Apr 2011 12:05:22 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8159-campbell-announces-for-cpc-9#comment-16900 you be right ragin, the last thing the peeple shood want is to elect someone that am connected. We be better off wit peepel that not involved in anythin, just like Terio. He never did anythin before and he still never do anythin. He is goood. - Real Change.

" Professional talkers in positions of political power who think that resumes detailing a history of attending meetings and getting to know people around town are sufficient qualifications for office are, unfortunately, nothing new. I'm sure Mr. Campbell is a great guy, and I'll take him at his word when he says he's a helluva salesman. But, I don't think it's reasonable to think that the voters of District 9 will get honest and direct answers to their questions from a councilman whose work history is sales and political appointee. As for the "fiscally conservative Republican", that term is so overused, especially in Lafayette, that it's become meaningless and trite. - ragin_cajun Thu, 21 Apr 2011 11:44:25 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8159-campbell-announces-for-cpc-9#comment-16895 Not a conservitive, another Durel Geautraux "rubberstamper" tax and spend on your buddies is economic development. - r.reagan Thu, 21 Apr 2011 11:17:21 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8159-campbell-announces-for-cpc-9#comment-16894 He also seems to keep a job.

Let's just put aside the ideological and personal for 5 seconds and all give this some very serious thought based on our personal experience in the real world. Campbell is " top producer with Keller Williams Realty in Lafayette". That means he's a salesman trying to become a politician. - ragin_cajun Thu, 21 Apr 2011 08:05:42 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8159-campbell-announces-for-cpc-9#comment-16884 He is co-owner and top producer with Keller Williams Realty in Lafayette ---------------------------------------------------------- Really? Let the lies begin....... Market Penetration By Agent 5/1/2010 - 5/1/2011 #22 Campbell, Walter 1.5 $259,312 $259,312 2.04% 2.18% He's #22 out of 24!!!!!!!!!!!! That's not a TOP PRODUCER in any sales organization, but why should facts and numbers matter? Walter, could you verify this? Was that what he told you, or just puffery? - Compassionate One Thu, 21 Apr 2011 07:07:23 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8159-campbell-announces-for-cpc-9#comment-16883 Walter is a good guy - he'll make a good public servant too... - SceneStealer Thu, 21 Apr 2011 06:59:17 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8159-campbell-announces-for-cpc-9#comment-16882 Looks like a clear choice for voters in District 9. If you want to keep as your councilman possibly the only real fiscal conservative on the council, someone who practices what he preaches by not accepting the council pay raise and not eating on the taxpayer dime at council meetings, vote to re-elect William Theriot. If you want another automatic Durel/Bertrand vote on the council, to continue the model of trying to find ways to increase taxes and handing over hundreds of thousands of dollars to Non-Governmental Organizations while other projects that are the responsibility of government go unfunded (drainage), vote for Walter Campbell. - RCajunrunner Thu, 21 Apr 2011 06:58:05 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8159-campbell-announces-for-cpc-9#comment-16879 Yeah right, do you mean conservative is supposed to equal completely stupid? If Theriot represents what is supposed to be conservative, then thinking is not an important quality. Campbell is a productive person that realizes that some things actually have to be researched and thought given. Theriot isn't a jerk, he is dumb. Or is he Dumber? - Gung-ho Thu, 21 Apr 2011 04:36:39 +0100 http://www.theind.com/news/indreporter/8159-campbell-announces-for-cpc-9#comment-16862 Another pretend conservative. Theriot may be a jerk, but he is a consistent conservative vote against taxes and spending. - Yeah, Right.
