| Tom DeLay bows out |
| Embattled GOP Rep. Tom DeLay (TX-22) has decided to step aside and not seek re-election in November. Reports are that
he intends to move out of the district, a loophole that will enable the GOP to select another candidate even though the primaries have passed.
I'll be looking at the ramifications of this eyebrow-raising announcement on the race here. We'll see if this shake-up warrants a rating
change. Right now, it's way too early to tell.
Update: Some clarification on this development. Because DeLay is resigning, a special election will be called by Gov. Rick Perry
to see who will succeed The Hammer. I'll post more information when I receive it.
Update2: John McIntyre
of RealClearPolitics says DeLay's resignation is good for the GOP not just in this race but in other close House races as well. Thanks to
commenter Brian for the link.
Update3: It looks like now that there will be no special election. I believe the plan is for DeLay to resign effective after
the next and last uniform election date of May 13. That way the GOP can select a successor to fill out his term and run for election in November.
