DeLay Ain't De-Lovely

Apparently some 150 people -- at least some of them Republicans from Tom DeLay's own nearby congressional district -- protested outside the National Rifle Assn. convention in Houston last night when Mr. DeLay was scheduled to speak. We watched a rebroadcast of that speech just an hour ago on C-SPAN, and DeLay seemed so rattled, stumbling over words and droning on with no visible enthusiasm, that someone wondered aloud whether he's drinking again.

You can read the details of Republican restiveness in his home district here in today's NYTimes.
