2. not the best array of options...
given that they have two choices critical of the current repuke bandits, and only one which defends their conduct. If I were their marketing professor, they'd get failing marks for this survey.

How many politically motivated indictments have there actually been in Smirky's tenure, in either direction? Don't any of Delay's constituents think his protestations make him look even weaker?

4. Done. But notice that "culture of corruption in Washington"
choice that didn't say "culture of corruption by Washington Republicans." It was a clever ploy to drain off votes from "misbehavior by DeLay."

Hmmm. Am I wrong?

6. Rethugs not taking responsibility. How typical.
BTW, it is 53% now - DeLay, vs 21% - Culture, vs 25% Dems.
