32 indictments came down today in the investigation of corporate money headed to Republican candidates for office in the great State of Texas. Three of the 32 were top aides in the Delay camp, and many of the others were from companies that donated to the Texans for a Republican Majority. One can only hope that one or more of the indictees rolls over on Delay.
There was a lot of happy dancing in my household tonight.
