"The Supreme Court agreed this week to review Texas' 2003 Congressional redistricting"

I'm not holding my breath on this one. But it could be an important case for the future. Certainly the time is right for reform.

Things get worse for DeLay....

Apparently Ronnie is starting to pull things together. DeLay had his fingers in so many pies it is hard to visualize the scale. But Ronnie is taking the next step and pulling in Wilkes who is implicated in the downing of the Dukester...

Travis County District Attorney Ronnie Earle, a Democrat, subpoenaed on Monday records of California businessman Brent Wilkes and three Wilkes-controlled companies that made a political contribution to a Texas fundraising committee set up by DeLay.
