I'll bet you $100 and give you 10-1 odds that won't happen in the 6th District.

i know they have gerrymandered it to make it more R friendly since 2008 but if Don Cazayoux can win it so can Edwin.

Edwin's not your typical Democrat, he has bipartisan appeal, can pander to populism with the best of them, and would have great industry support. Not to mention the huge number of voters that are too young and dumb to know what he did to this state. He would be a nightmare candidate for conservatives.

I'd take that bet depending on what republicans oppose him. If Dietzel's the best the GOP has, I'd take your easy money.

I'm not a betting man, but I think you underestimate both Edwin Edwards' personal appeal and the stupidity of the average Louisiana voter.

I saw Edwin a little over a year ago at TJ Ribs on Siegen. He came over and visited our table, said hello to everyone. Love him or hate him, the guy has charisma to burn, and he definitely knows how to work a room. Most voters don't bother to even try to get past those superficialities.
