If the facts are with Delay, he cannot get any worse than a hung jury, even in Austin there will be at least one juror who won't go along with a whitewash.
Elections are coming up; so this is bad news for Repubs. . .Delay will be 'occupado[.
As to a hung jury. . .I imagine politics in Texas can be pretty bad. . .I would not trust the Demrats to fill - somehow - a jury pool. . .something and of course, this is the charge that carries a real jail sentence.
That said. . .I think he will get off. . .I certainly hope so. But . . .whose tot trust out there, these days. . .
