Former Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke says he might run for office against Republican Rep. Steve Scalise of Louisiana.

Scalise faced questions earlier this month about a 2003 appearance he made as a state representative before the European-American Unity and Rights Organization (EURO) — a white supremacist group founded by Duke.

Scalise called the appearance “a mistake I regret” and condemned the sort of views groups like EURO hold.

Now Duke, who initially was supportive of Scalise, calling him a “nice guy” to the Washington Post, says he is a “sellout” for apologizing for speaking to the group over a decade ago.

2. Give that man a microphone! nt

3. Pickup?

In Louisiana's electoral system, all candidates of all parties run in the so-called "jungle primary". If Dukkke and Scalise split the white nationalist/neo-Nazi vote, a Dem could easily place in the top two.

Of course, that still leaves a likely runoff against an incumbent.

5. duke is stuck in europe somewhere? he was kicked out of germany. he can't run for anything.

[Feron]

7. Duke still owns a house in the district.

Per Wikipedia he's no longer registered to vote in Louisiana, but I'm sure that could be fixed.

But Duke doesn't have a shot of winning only because of his baggage. The people here seem to prefer 'respectable' racists.
