To the editor:
I am supporting Fred Camillo for state representative in the 151st District. Here's why.
He is a people person. Running for selectman, I quickly discovered that campaigning with Fred was a breeze. All you had to do was stand next to him, and people he knew would come up and chat. And that seemed like everyone. Fred is perhaps the most approachable and friendly person I have ever known.
He has character and will stand up for what he believes, even if that means going against powerful opposition. He has a political rudder that guides him in dealing with difficult issues.
He is a true fiscal conservative. One small example shows how Fred differs from his opponent. On the issue of public funding of elections, Fred stated: "There's got to be a better way than requiring people's hand-earned tax dollars to go for political signs and bumper stickers, especially if they don't agree with the candidate." His opponent fired back, saying that "actually, the Citizens Election Fund uses proceeds from the sale of abandoned property, not taxes, to fund the program." Well. If the state didn't use those proceeds to fund campaigns, they could be used to reduce taxes. So either way, the money comes out of our pockets.
Let's do an experiment. Those who think sending yet another liberal to Hartford will reduce government spending and taxation: Raise your hand. I thought so.
The only negative is that Fred roots for the Yankees instead of the Mets. But I forgive him for that lapse.
