If he pays the taxes, interest and the late fees how do you conclude the "rules don't apply to him" ?

The "late fee" is a penalty for non-compliance with the law. If you get caught for speeding and pay the fine, would you suggest that the fact that you paid the fine means that you didn't break the law? I'd love to see Edwards try that argument next time a reporter asks him about his tax record.

Your analogy fails. I'm not arguing if its right or not, I'm arguing that he wasn't treated as above the law. The law applied to him.

Are you proposing that a traffic ticket invalditates a candidate for the office the president ? If so, that too is a waste of time issue.
