There had been speculation that Duke would oppose Bobby Jindal for the open House seat in suburban New Orleans, but this indicates that he cannot run for office with his felony conviction. He lost a race for that same seat in 1999.
To: Theodore R.
Would he need permission from his parole officer to run for office?

Speculation on who's part? Delusional sociopaths?

I read in some of the articles a few weeks back that Duke was "thinking" of running for Congress again. No, I did not "dream" this. He really has no political future, and I am sure that he knows that as well as anyone.

I read the same thing somewhere, that Duke was indeed "thinking" of running again. Though his political future is non-existent as concerns elected office, I fear Duke still has a future as a racist rabble-rouser. He'd have simply used his Congressional run as a means to push himself and his "merchandise."

Gosh....I hope that's his hand!

So explain again why it is that 70 percent of the people of WV have "total faith" in this elderly gentleman.

*smirk* I would've thought the same thing about Marian Barry, but go figure.

I just figured out the answer to my own question. People in WV think this elderly gentleman is the "real Santa Claus." He's a little older than the department store model, but he brings "goodies" to men and women, not just boys and girls!

David Duke ran as a Democrat and an independent before he ever ran as a Republican. RINOs come in all shapes and sizes. Doesn't mean that they are "Republicans".
Democrats showed that they will vote in a primary to select a RINO that they agree with (see McCain's 2000 campaign).

I hate to admit it, but David Duke does have one good point...
...right on top of his white hood.
To: Theodore R.
I'm surprised that no one on this thread brought up the fact that he was in jail for bilking his supporters (implied to be racists). Isn't this like someone milking the Islamofascists for money and then using it to buy a luxury car?
The funds are kept from doing their full damage.

Perhaps the 70 percent of WV which worships Robert C. Byrd is showing gratitude for past favors or hope for future ones!

It's probably the 70% who don't know what orange juice is.

Hey groovy! Maybe he can testify before the 911 commission. He must have heard something bad about President Bush while inside the big house!
