Wasn’t he the one that said I’m fine unless they catch me with a live boy or a dead girl?

[Red Badger]

Did he have a dead woman or a live boy?................

Highly corrupt administrations. (One of the bumper stickers in one election was “Vote for the Crook/It’s Important). Dodged all of the charges except one - and the consensus was that it was the only one where he was probably innocent. But odds and his reputation caught up with him.

While he was married to his first wife, one of the LSU sororities used to supply girls. A state car would pick them up and deliver them to the governor. (I think the wife was in the governor’s mansion, and he was living elsewhere, but I may be wrong about that recollection - it’s been more than 30 years)

His third wife was only 50 years younger than him.

Democrat crook.

Leaning into his checkered past, Mr. Edwards’s campaign bumper sticker read: “Vote for the Crook. It’s import

This is Louisiana. So, the natural reply query to the bumper sticker is “Which one?”

A good guy. Saw him many times in the 70s at Harrah’s crap tables Lake Tahoe. Always dressed impeccably.

I was in a band that was hired to play at several fundraisers during one of his many campaigns for governor. He was a colorful, animated character.

[Little Ray]

Edwards is famous for running against David Duke - “Vote for the Crook - It’s Important.”
That was an actual GOP sticker.

[Luke21]

He was a damn crook.

He was a crook but that's pretty much a requirement to get elected governor in Louisiana. Colorful guy that could always be counted on for entertainment.

Louisiana always was and remains a political cesspool and this guy was the turd that floated to the top and stayed there the longest.

[wardaddy]

He was a character

[gopno1]

One of the country’s all-time great shysters. If there were a shyster HOF he’d be a first ballot inductee.

[Political Junkie Too]

I know nothing about his time as Governor.

He's the guy who ensnared Eddie DeBartolo in a riverboat gambling hotel scam that cost DeBartolo the San Francisco 49ers.
