...''He's always survived incidents that have been spread out one at a time," but after three admonishments in one week by the ethics panel, DeLay is more vulnerable, said Lou Dubose, coauthor of ''The Hammer: Tom DeLay -- God, Money, and the Rise of the Republican Congress."
...Three DeLay associates have been indicted in a Texas criminal investigation into alleged laundering of corporate money to Texas legislative campaigns through TRMPAC, a committee DeLay founded. If Delay, who has not been interviewed in the case, is indicted, he must step down as leader, according to House rules.
