Tom DeLay has been convicted for money laundering and conspiracy to commit money laundering. He faces a sentence of anything from probation to life in prison. Most everyone is hoping for the latter.
Prosecutors claim the money helped Republicans take control of the Texas House. That enabled the GOP majority to push through a Delay-engineered congressional redistricting plan that sent more Texas Republicans to Congress in 2004 and strengthened DeLay's political power.
In 1994, the Republicans were in control of both chambers in Congress, DeLay, along with Gingrich and conservative activist Grover Norquist, helped start the K Street Project, an effort to pressure Washington lobbying firms to hire only Republicans in top positions, and to reward loyal GOP lobbyists with access to influential officials.
DeLay made political news when he became perhaps the most famous Republican yet to promote the "birther" conspiracy theory about President Barack Obama.
DeLay may be the most corrupt ever member of the US House of Representatives. But he claims that God talks to him.
