HOUSTON, Texas (CNN) -- Despite being indicted and relegated to the back benches, Rep. Tom DeLay's political stock remained strong enough with the folks back home for him to win Tuesday night's primary election in his Houston-area district.
aps said:I think they wanted him to win so that Nick Lampson would be running against him. If Nick is running against someone else, who doesn't have the negative reputation that DeLay has, he has a greater chance of losing. By running against DeLay, he has a better chance of winning.

Interesting . NP started a thread based on the facts of what happened in yesterday's election. BWG counters with a crystal ball prediction.BWG said:An INCUMBENT REPUBLICAN winning a REPUBLICAN primary against no-chance-in-hell-of-winning-dogcatcher REPUBLICANs. :rofl
Batting practice.The real ballgame is in November.
That is, if he's still around. :2funny:

Deegan said:It is indeed creeps like Delay that have forced me to leave the party, I have no doubt they will elect him once again, if not for the very reason some give, to stick it to the Dem's. I don't want to stick it to them, if I'm left with this man as the representative of my party. This is not to say he is the only one, or that this is a problem in the Rep. party exclusively, but you have to start somewhere, and this is the party in power.

Actually, the problem isnt with the Republican party, but with the parasitic Neocons which infested it.
aps said:Apparently Vanity Fair will be publishing an article on Abramoff in its next issue, where he talks about his close relationships with various conservatives including, but not limited to, Bush, DeLay, Gingrich, Burns, Mehlman, and more. This is going to be interesting.
Captain America said:I was just thinking that they would be as glad to see him go as I was seeing Clinton fade off into the sunset. I would be ashamed to have him be representative of my party (that is....if I had one.:roll: )
