“There are no second acts in American lives,” F. Scott Fitzgerald famously wrote. But with the curtain closing on Rep. Tom DeLay’s (R-TX) second act — a bravura performance as one of the most powerful House majority leaders in modern history — Fitzgerald can go jump in a lake.
What will DeLay do for a follow-up? We doubt he’ll return to his first love, exterminating bugs. The Houston Chronicle reports today he’s going to “move to Virginia to work with a conservative organization,” at least unless a federal judge gets other ideas. Anybody know which group recruited the Hammer?
