The clock is ticking for DeLay to regain his House leadership post.
Earle is trying to stall and run out the clock. The Texas Supremes have called Earle's bluff and are forcing him to put up or shut up.
The down side is that I think Earle will get more chances to stall, but at least now he has to at least put up a good show or the Texas Supremes will toss him out on his ear.
This is high stakes poker and Earle is holding a broken straight.

The Supremes will throw the whole case out in a week unless there is some legitimate reason to proceed. This was a good move by the DeLay team. It is all about dragging this out until DeLay loses his power in Congress. My guess is there is no meat in the charges at all.

Not so.
It's Austin to a brick that Delay's day is done.
What happens to him as the result of the machinations of corrupt Texas "democrats'" is of less signifigance any more than what other career "Republicans" have in store for him, in DC.
Delay will never hold another house leadership position.
