Carpenter Is A C#&*hound

I always thought Charles Carpenter was a pretty decent guy, just not mayor material. I wanted to like him because he came from my old neighborhood and graduated from Southside High School. But in my opinion he just left something to be desired. Now I think I have some evidence to back up my earlier uneasiness with him.

I always felt his association with Thaddeus Matthews was his first and biggest mistake. It made anything that came up just that much worse. It was enough that he had to distance himself from Mayor Herenton without adding Matthews too. He had to know that would be a liability. Now I think I know why he is taking the unnecessary heat. It's not so much Thaddeus as it is his producer. This is just pure speculation on my part but I think I'm right. She use to be a refreshing addition to the show, but lately she has become as irritating as the host. She has started sounding like someone who is sleeping with the boss. Since Charles Carpenter is the biggest advertiser on the show. He is kind of the boss right now.Thaddeus is so busy patting himself on the back I don't even think he knows. An untimely arrival and a slip of the tongue on her part gave their secret away. Carpenter is a c#&*hound.
