Apparently now that Tom DeLay doesn’t have a congressional seat to lose, the gloves are really coming off.
This morning on Fox News Radio’s Tony Snow Show, DeLay said that he’s going to go after Ronnie Earle, the Texas prosecutor who indicted him on Money Laundering charges:
Texas should not allow a district attorney from Travis County have this kind of power. And they can take his power away from him because there was the Texas legislature that gave him this power. And I think that will happen in the next session of the Texas legislature.
The next session of the Texas legislature?
If such a plan has been hatched, no one has told the Speaker of Texas’ House, Tom Craddick. When we called his office, spokeswoman Alexis DeLee said she hadn’t heard of the plot.
More as we hear it.
