Don't you think that IF they had anything to tie Delay directly to wrongdoing RE: Abramoff, that news would have been out last week...when Abramoff spilled his guts???
I have heard several "experts" say that in cases like Abramaoffs, they are SURE to get any and all important people that might be involved, testified to right then...because then, at a later date, Abramoff wouldn't be able to come back and deny that he fingered so-and-so.
