Best. Paragraph. Ever.
AP:

"We took a whuppin' last night and we understand that," said Tom DeLay, the former GOP House majority leader, whose old Texas seat switched to Democrats, too. DeLay, who resigned from the House after being charged in connection with a campaign finance scheme, said many conservatives chose not to vote.

1. I would guess ...
that more people stopped identifying themselves with his (their) perverted form of conservatism.

I consider myself a conservative (left leaning) in many respects (specifically a Zappa Conservative).

Why isn't Tom Delay in jail ?

Cheers

2. "...many conservatives chose not to vote."
YEAH, RIGHT!! Many conservatives chose not to vote, my ass! I saw the map of the country that CNN put up around 2AM - there was a hell of a lot of BLUE; blue in the south, blue in the mid-west, all over the areas that are usually redder than red.

Explain that one Tommy!
