That would be pure, unnecessary grandstanding.
You can indict a hamburger and conservatism is alive and well. Earle has hurt the Democrats - Republican DeLay, hounded by this nit has strengthened the conservative movement IMHO.
No it won't. The movement is tied to ideas; not one man. The outcome will be that DeLay is completely exonerated. Earle will be disgraced and the movement will gain strength from this episode.
I disagree. This is the same thing that happened with that lobbyist and travel irregularities. What ended up happening there was no sooner did the MSM start crucifying republicans when very embarrassing and much more egregious violations of ethics policies start coming from the woodwork on Democrats.
The moonbats here are going to cook Hillary's goose if it gets to far. Hillary has at least 3 real, viable FEC violations in her closet that the MSM have chosen to ignore. If this blows to far open and they go after DeLay like they went after Lott, then the smartest woman in the world is going to get hammered too.
They can't take this as far as they want to here. This is just a minor distraction in the same vein as what happened to Kay Bailey Hutchison.
