There is a rumor out there that Millie Cardello is thinking of running for mayor in 2013. At this point it is only a rumor and the Millie Cardello bashing has already started over on Topix. It's going to be a long two years.

I had also heard that she was considering a run. In that same conversation I was told some businesses have been told not to talk to her. No idea the extent of it. That said, if anyone is considering running for office they have to NOT focus on the nonsense online and stick to the issues. Make the commitment…stick to it…. campaign hard and knock on those doors. Anyone will have a good chance. |

I was just reading this weeks Independent and they are reporting both Van Campen and Cardello are in "the beginning stages of considering a run for the mayor's office". |

I was driving through the square a little while ago and saw a "Van Campen for Mayor" bumper sticker. I guess it's official. |

I would think he would have to start early to be able to raise the funds needed to run for mayor. |

You're probably right but I was thinking it's too early to show his hand............ |

I am not getting excited over this race as of yet, VanCampen has been running for 8 years, I too saw the homemade bumper stickers, those are the people who really want him to run, but I will believe it when I see the announcement in the paper |

Homemade bumper stickers? Don't people realize that's a decision he has to make on his own? |

The bumper sticker I saw was not homemade. It was red, white and blue and it said "Robert Van Campen for Mayor of Everett". |

Well, homemade or not, I still think it's too early for him to be declaring his intentions.............. Especially if he keeps doing stupid things like voting for that ridiculous salary for the new council.
If he really wants this, he needs to step up & stop going along with everything. Ask the hard questions & push for answers, not the crap that Carlo throws around. I like the guy but he comes off as being a little short on cajones & he'll be going against a man who's are solid gold & as big as they get! |

Why do people do stupid things like that? If you really want someone to run, then back-off and let the man announce it first. I swear, people create their own problems. |

That kind of foolishness creates problems for a potential candidate. If VanCampen or anyone else chooses to run, they should be afforded the courtesy of making the announcement at a time & place of their choosing. Putting them in a position where they have to deny they're going to run or announcing before their ready is not helping a candidate at all! |
