Anyone in Travis County want to start a campaign to get the Judge to recuse himself?

Definitely a recusal is in order to avoid conflict of interest.

Can an appeal be made on conviction because a judge did not recuse himself?

Maybe the judge doesn't believe there's any way it'll go to trial anyway.

Maybe.... I think if you're DeLay's team... you petition the judge to remove himself. So that it's in the court record. And that's one of your first reasons for appeal.
