re: Edwin Edwards vs. David Duke Governor Race 1991

I frequently look back at that election with great introspection. I was a freshman in college, first governor's vote for me, away from home on college campus, changing perceptions on race and equality had already begun. Was forced to vote for a known crook or a known racist (dem vs rep, next to the names). Won't say who I cast my vote for, but it is not one of my proudest moments, in hindsight.

I went to campaign speeches for both on my college campus. They both talked an incredibly good game and made you believe they were over their prior indiscretions.

What a terrible choice my soul had to make....
