DeLay and his legacy are both on trial

DeLay and his legacy are both on trial: "It's been a bleak December for U.S. Rep. Tom DeLay.

A judge ordered the Sugar Land Republican to stand trial on money-laundering and conspiracy charges. The U.S. Supreme Court announced it will review the Texas congressional map that DeLay worked so hard for. And DeLay's desire for a speedy trial and quick rebound as U.S. majority leader seems less likely every day."
