Re: Not hearing much on the Delay indictments suddenly

I will just point to the fact that he was indicted on "charges" that weren't even illegal as proof of a political motivation. You can't really counter that, because it's a fact.

Not that it will change Jax's mind (or Felix's or the rest of the koolaid bunch), but since he put the RNC talking point out there like a good little dittohead, here's the truth:
Texas state penal code has had the conspiracy issue outlined for years. It allows for a charge of conspiracy against defendants if they conspired to commit ANY felony, including an election code felony.
In 2003 (after the money laundering was done), the ELECTION CODE law was expanded to include, explicitly, conspiracy charges.
So the indictment Earle made, under the Texas state PENAL code, is more than valid. I anxiously await the trial date on both this charge and the money laundering charge.
