Yesterday at the Bob Thomas County Commission At large launch at Powell Auction were these cards. Now, Phil Ballard is term limited and can not run for Property Assessor in 2016, when it is up on the ballot again. There were several elected officials that are on the ballot next year, 2014 that were not passing out cards. But, Ballard had these. It this a hint that in 2014, he will challenge Knox County Mayor Tim Burchett?
Also, it is curious if Ballard got UT’s permission and paid a royalty for the action photo?
Ballard as county mayor? I’d rather eat ground glass.
I would love to see Tim kill Phil in a mayoral election!!
You got to be kidding me Brian……. As if this idiot hasn’t put the screws to us in the assessors office and he wants to be the mayor. Hell fire is this man out of his mind? I know old Hunley has his crooked buddies but this man is past the point of return. Eight years of his is plenty for knoxville. Old John the 3rd didn’t wear a wire for six months for nothing. This man is being fed to the slaughter house and is wearing blinders at that. Has anyone heard the term FBI is the building? A day will come when csi rolls up takes him out and he vanishes to a federal prison. He didn’t hire an attorney for nothing. I just can’t see this happening. Al the damn bologna in the world an the free papers could get him any further than he has gone with government. I could see him taking a Stab at Campfield but his screws are too thin and time isn’t on his side. Take a ride on the elevator to the sixth floor and go to the escape hatch and fly away Phil.
