Nussle Hearts DeLay

Gordon Fischer reminds us of another reason why Nussle is going to lose:

Congressman Nussle repeatedly voted for Mr. DeLay as Majority Leader; in fact, he supported Mr. DeLay even after he had been admonished by the House Ethics Committee multiple times. Congressman Nussle took $15,020 from Tom DeLay’s ARMPAC. Congressman Nussle voted with Mr. DeLay 93% of the time between Jan. 1, 2004 and March 31, 2005. Congressman Nussle voted to weaken the ethics rules in a move that many say served only to protect Congressman DeLay. When Democrats offered a solution to clean up the House by strengthening ethics rules, Mr. Nussle voted to make sure it never even came to an up or down vote.

I hope Nussle gets swift boated all summer over this.
