Don’t be surprised if he wins a fifth term soon. Damn voting machines.

Love him or hate him, you have to admit the man was an interesting and colorful Louisiana character...certainly the most interesting and colorful one since Huey Long.

They say if you can’t say something nice then don’t say anything. With that in mind,

His picture needs to be included in the standard definition of politician.

Absolutely. He would have fit in well on this Board. Would have loved to visit for a comprehensive dialogue re Religion and Politics.

RIP.

I was never a fan of EWE. With that said, I pray for his soul. I pray God will be merciful to him.

And like a true Politician, he lied up until the day he died. Just last week he said he was going into hospice care, but was totally fine.

I got excited for a second when I saw "Governor Edwards has Died," then I read the article and was sad.

He was a piece of shite and his thievery still haunts Louisiana in 2021. Good riddens.

Craziest Political Candidate Ever (yeah, I know, it's Jezebel)

That dirty old crook was pretty quick at the trigger with bawdy remarks...

It is not often that I agree with cwill on a political matter, but when I do, it is usually emphatic agreement.

Probably the most interesting politician in my lifetime. Corrupt but capable, definitely a ladies man.
