Poll shows embattled DeLay trailing in Texas race


HOUSTON (Reuters) - Embattled Republican Tom DeLay trails a Democratic challenger for his seat in the U.S. House of Representatives and is viewed favorably by only 28 percent of people questioned in a poll of his Houston area district, the Houston Chronicle said in its online edition on Saturday. The survey of 560 registered voters conducted Tuesday through Thursday found 30 percent favored former U.S. Rep. Nick Lampson, a Democrat, compared with 22 percent for DeLay, who has represented the district for 22 years.

1. It would be sweet if he finally lost, but the way the elections are rigged
these days he'll only lose if the GOP want to cut him loose.
