Yeah, but remember the year we got Eddie Edwards vs David Duke? A known criminal vs a known klansman. And after Fast Eddie won, he pulled more shenanigans in the governor's mansion and got prosecuted for those.


If Roemer doesn't have a midlife crisis and switch parties, you would have had Roemer and Edwards in the runoff that year. It was a crazy year where the sitting governor was an absentee in the governor's race until about 2 months before polling.

I was going to say something about Buddy Roemer, but I was pretty young back then and couldn't remember if he'd ran or not. It may not have to do with my age at the time and more to do with the fact that he was, as you said, absentee for most of the process.
