A used car salesman, named Winston Domingue, who ran a high scale dealership of up scale cars in Houston, Texas, whose business was Winston Motorcars Inc., filed for Chapter 11 reorganization in late September, hours after lender Olympic Financial Ltd. filed suit in Houston federal court accusing Domingue and his company of breach of contract. (See: "Luxury used car dealer runs afoul of lender"). That was in 1996.Fast forward to the present when Lee Domingue is a candidate for Senate District 16 in Baton Rouge and is campaigning to replace Dr. Bill Cassidy who was recently elected to Congress. (See: "Texas Used Car Dealer Named Winston, Is LA Senate Candidate Lee Domingue" in LaNewsLink 1/30/09).
Now here is the kicker. Both men are one and the same. La. News Link reports that Domingue has said that he had flunked out of two colleges and confessed to being an addict and a womanizer. id.
Wow, what an approach to a political campaign.
