DeLay's Hope for Quick Case Dashed

A judge "dismissed one felony indictment but upheld another" against Rep. Tom DeLay (R- TX), "dashing DeLay's hopes for a speedy resolution to his case," the Houston Chronicle reports. A quick ruling in DeLay's favor" was crucial to the lawmaker's "efforts to regain his post as U.S. House majority leader. He was forced to step down when he was indicted in September."

"House Republicans have indicated they wanted to hold a leadership election in January if DeLay was not cleared by then."
