There are numerous articles about the resignation of Tom Delay. The one I want to hear is ‘Who hammered the Hammer’? The vile, dirty politician did not go willingly, and even knowing that he was indicted, and sure to see prision time. The last thing this man was, was magnanimous. Considering that the man thought that the republican party was his to control, his personal plaything. There is little doubt that he didn’t go willingly, assuming that he is leaving.
The question really should be, who made him quit?
Update: Looks like maybe the feds did, as it is beginning to look a lot like a federal indictment
could be a confluence of two factors: the looming indictment coupled with an offer from some lobbying group who would pay enough to cover his mounting expenses. As it is he gets to turn his campaign fund into a defense fund.
