Tom DeLay Loses Bid to Move Trial From Austin

[deminks]

Tom DeLay, who had a moment in the sun last week when he learned the feds decided not to prosecute him, didn't fare as well in state court today.

The Judge refused to move his trial from Travis County, which includes Austin, which DeLay claimed was too liberal a county to be fair.

His trial is tentatively set for Oct. 26.

5. Austin is plenty, liberal, but there are plenty of conservatives there too

And if it's a Travis County jury that means they may not live in the city proper. Once you get outside of the city, the political climate changes real fast.

11. Just outside of downtown

as a matter of fact. Oh, I miss Austin so. I love where I live now. A lot. But if I ever had to leave, I'd go back to Austin (a third time) in a heartbeat.

When we moved here, it was on a coin-toss. Austin or here.

Oh, DeLay is really having an Awshit Day.

Heh. Couldn't happen to a nicer sumbitch.

Austin has great BBQ and grills big enough to handle Delay's fat ass.
