Fairhope, Al.
DECISION TIME NEARS
It has often been said that "politics makes strange bedfellows" and that is surely the case with Fairhope residents Cecil Christenberry and Louis Campomenosi who were on polar-opposite sides during the tax referendum last March -- but now support the same candidate for school superintendent: Carl "Eddie" Tyler.
"Dr. Lou" is president of the regional Common Sense Tea Party; one other board member has publicly supported Tyler as well, Myrick.
Repealing so-called 'common core' curriculum standards has always been a high Tea Party priority, but Christenberry believes that is not Tyler's objective.
He added there "have always been" many things he and Dr. Lou agree on.
(Fairhope chapter Tea Party director Cody Philips also supports Tyler; activist Mathew Brown has not indicted a preference, to our knowledge.)
VOTE WON''T BE UNANIMOUS?
All interviews have now been completed and the final vote will be held Thursday in Loxley; but it is unlikely the appointment will be unanimous.
Sources tell the Times' political reporter that at least one school board member favors Dr.James Stevens and possibly one (or two?) others Dr. John Green for the job.
One question asked of all candidates was "will you accept the position if the vote is not unanimous" -- and all replied affirmatively, except Stevens who said he would "have to think about" it if it were 4-3.

The egotistical "natives" have made a mess of things.
