What has triggered Tom DeLay to step away from regaining his position as House majority leader?
Was it just the petition for new leadership elections some Republicans floated? I had expected DeLay to fight that one down.
Yesterday Time reported Duke Cunningham wore a wire while cooperating with the prosecutors in his bribe case. That wire must have caught some interesting talk.
Was Jack Abramoff also wearing one throughout the 18 month he is said to have cooperated with the investigation? Transcripts of such bugged conversations in which he bribes politicians should be even more interesting than Cunnigham’s.
Maybe yesterdays Time piece made DeLay understand how huge the upcoming train really is. He sure knows about bugs.
Roy Blunt, who now wants DeLay’s post permanently, will have to have the same fear. But he wants the job dearly.
Fine with me, the longer this scandal series takes, the better.
