My question is whether the U.S. district attorney who will receive the case is the same one that put Edwards behind bars.

I hope so.

Any chance we can get that seat? If not who cares? One black rat goes to jail. another steps up and steals just as much. No biggie!

Maybe, but the case against Edwards was never as strong as the string of crookedness of Jefferson and Morial... Edwards was not a patently crooked person either, just made a few mistakes in office that put him in a bad light... Compared to Jefferson/Morial, Edwards is pure as the driven snow...
