Indictment 1: A charge for crime that wasnt even a crime at the time DeLay allegedly commited the crime.

To clarify, conspiracy to violate the election code was not a specific statute. Nevertheless, conspiracy to commit a crime has been a illegal for a long long time, regardless of whether it's been "in the books".
To say "this isn't a crime" is like saying murder's not a crime, if it has not been codified.
