Tom Delay needs a new nickname

I don't know what it should be, but I think Tom Delay needs a derrogative nickname attached to him. "Crooked Tom" or "Tammany Delay" for the more historically minded. Because , buried in a George Will column(so no wonder everybody missed it) was this gem.

Tom Delay, under investigation for playing a major part in possibly the biggest money for votes and kickbacks scandal in a century, brags that he will win "the most expensive congressional race ever."

Also, this wonderful little story in my local paper. It appears my Crazy Christian Bush favored governor(nicknamed "good hair" by the way) may get taken down with Delay as well. Happy Day!
The Chronicle had reported that one of the state's contract lobbyists, Cassidy & Associates, spent $7,600 to host a fundraiser for U.S. Rep. Tom DeLay's Americans for a Republican Majority on March 2, less than two weeks after receiving its first monthly state payment of $15,000. The firm's lead lobbyist, Todd Boulanger, has close ties to DeLay and his aides.....

"The same guy, on the same day, nearly simultaneously signs a state lobby contract worth $15,000 a month and hosts a fundraiser for Mr. DeLay,"
