They couldn't prove the money received was from Delay's RNC, some money showed up in the hands of the 7 districts but not enough proof.

Tom Delay was a great American we need more principled individuals like him

Tom Delay should have stuffed all that money in a freezer, that's how real criminal politicians do it.

He wasn't found innocent.

In other words, he got off on a technicality. [MOD CUT]
