Scandal Man: DNC Special report on DeLay.

Meet Rep. Tom DeLay (R-TX), the man Republicans have chosen as their Majority Leader in the House of Representatives.

Tom DeLay is at the center of a bewildering array of investigations into corruption, abuse of power, and ethics violations.

As the courts and committees investigate DeLay's misdeeds and hand down indictments, keeping track of all the scandals can be a full-time job. So we thought it would helpful to offer folks this quick and easy guide.

3. This is great, but we need to take things slow here.
Tom DeLay is the gift that keeps on giving. His political career needs to meet with a slow and painful end. If we pressure him too much and he quits, we lose a guy who is going to make terrific campaign fodder in 2006 and 2008. The fact that he stepped out of the shadows in this Schiavo matter makes this even more significant, since more Americans now know who he is.

Sorry if this offends anyone, I just remember how disappointed I was when Newt quit because he was such a wonderful lightening rod for criticizing the GOP.

4. Couldn't agree more. Slow and steady wins the race.
So to speak.

5. How can it offend me? It is not my report. Why would you say it offends?

I simply posted it. Don't care one way or the other.
