In response to questions today about Willie Herenton's possible entry into the Memphis mayoral race, Shelby County Mayor A C Wharton's campaign spokeswoman Tonya Meeks issued this statement:
"Mayor Wharton has not and will not comment on any other candidate in the race. His focus is on running his campaign and laying out a progressive vision for this community. As we have said before, the number of candidates--no matter who they are or what their personal agendas may be--will not decide (note: edited from previous version due to press release error) the next Mayor of Memphis. The voters will. In the past several weeks, we have heard the electorate say with unmistakable clarity that they are ready for a city that is unified and moving forward. That is the vision that Mayor Wharton is campaigning on, and one he will continue to advance to all Memphians. The response to his campaign has been overwhelmingly positive. Literally every day since this campaign began, we have heard from more and more volunteers and supporters who know exactly what kind of city they want for themselves and for their children. This campaign is about people, because citizens want an administration that will be about people."
No comment on other candidates. But he will bribe them to get out of the race, promising them jobs if they do?

Typo in the press release... Third sentence should be "As we have said before, the number of candidates--no matter who they are or what their personal agendas may be--will note decide the next Mayor of Memphis."
I wonder if wharton knew his partner in crime willie was gonna pull this stunt?
