New information today indicates that Tom DeLay's business connections were indeed involved in 2002 political activity, in probable violation of Texas law. At the very least, Texas Association of Business (TAB) president Bill Hammond is in deep kim-chee over letters and phone banks supporting Republican candidates for the state legislature, and relationships that led to TAB acquiring the mailing list. Austin district attorney Ronnie Earle has a history of building his cases very carefully, so we should not expect immediate drama, but today's article is thoroughly documented, and the denials and explanations issued in response are paper thin, which suggests to me that this is headed in a positive direction.
We'll all be on the lookout for this obviously important Texas news story in the Sunday Globe-News, right? Anyone holding their breath?
