Stay Just a Little Bit Longer

All over the land, liberals, those Americans who would be known as center-right moderates in every other western democracy, are gloating and gleefully rubbing their hands together at final fall of Tom DeLay. I keep thinking of what happened when Trent Lott left. Remember that? Gloating, gleeful rubbing, and then up steps Bill Frist. A doctor. He saved two men's lives, right there in Washington and even helped out Diane Feinstein during an asthma attack. A doctor, he must be educated, which has to make him...a moderate! So with the Trent Lott KKK boogie man gone, people forgot to be afraid of the GOPs and look what happened. Four more years of these idiots. Frist is now tracking right so hard and so fast, he's about to take over the title of American Taliban. DeLay's going is a huge blow to us on the left. We will no longer have him around to shake in people's faces and remind them why they should not vote for Republicans. Mean-spirited, corrupt, hypocritical, vindictive: the face of today's Republican party. How we will suffer without him.

I like your take on this. He does them more harm than good. Sort of like Michael Moore and Cindy Shehan for us.

This is more my fear, as summed up by Joshua Norton:
