   I like Governor Perry.  He is a real barrel of laughs.   
   While he is nowhere near as smart as former Governor Edwin   
   Edwards of Louisiana, he does have his moments.

    BM> Let the party begin!!!   
      
   For Edwin Edwards, a convicted felon who served 10 years in the pen,   
   the party is just beginning.  At age 87, he is running for Congress.   
   As a Democrat in a blood red district.  And it looks like he just   
   might win.  Here is an excerpt from a recent televised debate -   
      
   Moderator Lee Zurik:   
   "Can a Democrat win a state office, including governor, again?"   
      
   Edwin Edwards:   
   "Get me a pardon and I will show you."   
      
   And you thought I was joking when I said Louisiana has the best   
   politicians that money can buy.  :)
