DeLay Indicted

Well I be shocked. Some of DeLay's behavior has finally caught up with him. Today a grand jury indicted the man for criminial conspiracy (whatever that is) in regards to his campaign donations. As a result of this DeLay is no longer the House Majority Leader. Sure the house re-wrote the rules to protect him last year but their isn't a whole lot they can do in this scenario except find a replayment, who will be Eric Cantor (VA) and David Dreir (CA).

Of course nothing will come of this and something like "criminial conspiracy" sounds likes it would be a bitch to prove even if the person wasn't one of the most powerful in the country. This will go away quietly and silently much like Karl Rove's part in the Plume case has. For whatever reason, the Republicans get a free ride in stuff like this rather then -Gate names that democrats get on a regular basis.
