New DeLay allegations, but not from the local newspaper
Laurence Simon calls attention to this article on the latest campaign finance allegations against House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R), which found their way into the New York Times from the Washington Post via Reuters.
I'm less inclined than Laurence to think this spells the end of DeLay, because I suspect this latest allegation won't go very far and because the Democrats seem unlikely to take DeLay's solidly Republican district by appealing to the political preferences of readers of the Daily Kos weblog. And in calling out a "right wing blogger smear campaign" against the Daily Kos and expressing solidarity with Governor Dean, Democrat Richard Morrison isn't exactly appealing to the mainstream in DeLay's district. I can't help but think that the DeLay campaign team is looking forward to the rematch that Morrison is promising. They probably are looking less forward to the possibility of more ethics trouble, though.
