His time's just about up, anyway. That's the way political fortunes have gone in that position for the last few decades.

Majority leader is not speaker.

Who is the prosecutor? Does he have a record of selectively bringing charges against Republicans?

He'll be found Not Guilty. (better than Not Proven)

Indictments are easy to get. Any DA worth his salt can get a grand jury to indict, it has been said. Getting the charges to stick are another thing.

But Delay may find his power brokering delayed for a bit.

Heard this was coming down the pike yesterday. It was all over the Leftists websites. I thought maybe it was just wishful thinking on their part. UGH!

Democrats playing hardball.

Next step in this process is for the Republicans to acquiesce quietly and slink away with their tail between their legs.

Move along. Nothing to see here.

"Is this the same prosecutor that's been after Delay for years?"

While the axiom that any DA could "indite a ham sandwich" is true.

There must be some substantial evidence to take such an important Congressman.

He needs to concentrate on fighting this charge, and he will be exonerated.

This is a political witchhunt.
