Basically, I heard DeLay was simply there to encourage the party to pull together. No new information other than what has already been made public. Also, have been told he had no dog in the hunt re a favorite to carry the Republican banner and information to the contrary was incorrect.

That's not what I heard. I heard that he went into detail why he's not able to run which he had indicated he would run if he lost in the court case in removing his name from the ballot.

So what's the reason? I suspect it's money in his coffer he's using to fight his court case in Texas and wasn't willing to use it in a campaign against Lamp...So is that a rumor or what?
