Mayor Campbell has presided over this city's most tremendous growth in decades. His record of accomplishments across the board compares favorably to that of any U.S. mayor.
Crime is down, taxes are stable, and the city's infrastructure is being rebuilt.
For the first time in four decades the city is experiencing a boost in population. The tragedy is that such a question should even be asked. Campbell has been targeted by folks who purchase ink by the barrel and are determined to do him in through rumor, innuendo and a daily does of mean-spirited invective. Unfortunately, there has been little counter-balanced journalism in the mainstream media. Even when the mayor responds appropriately to reporters' insistent queries, the headlines always blast him.
