I don’t believe he’s guilty but the jury verdict stands. I hope/pray he wins on appeal.
Regardless, this presents an opportunity to prosecute numerous Demo0crats for similar and worse abuses or the system. Failure to do that negates efforts to ‘clean up’ congress and hold them accountable. IF Delay can be convicted on such flimsy evidence, surly Pelosi, Franks, Dodd, Reid and others deserve similar scrutiny.
Travis County District Attorney, Ronnie Earle (D) has prosecuted 16 politicians : twelve democrats and four republicans. He successfully prosecuted a state treasurer, a House speaker, a state Supreme Court justice and several legislators all Democrats. Republicans cite his case against Republican Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison as example of partisanship. When the Democratic judge ruled computer records inadmissable, Earle dropped that case. He has a 91 percent conviction rate in jury trials.
US Rep. Tom DeLay on Earle - "partisan fanatic" and "a runaway district attorney
Rep. Henry Bonilla (San Antonio) - "a partisan crackpot"

The law making these “charges” illegal WAS NOT WRITTEN OR IN EFFECT when he did this. He did nothing wrong. It was NOT illegal at the time. I am no Delay fan, but the verdict is clearly wrong. Appeal!
