Delay, R-nowhere, "I will never again run for political office."
DeLay says courts erred in ballot ruling

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060825/ap_on_go_co/delay_interview

HOUSTON - Former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay said he never thought the courts would prevent the Republican Party from replacing him on the November ballot, a Houston television station reported Thursday.

"I'm very disappointed in our justice system. There doesn't seem to be justice," DeLay told KTRK-TV.

DeLay said he is helping with a book about his career and how the last 22 years of the country's history helped advance the conservative cause. He said he will not become a lobbyist and will never again run for political office.
