Tom Delay Vindicated By Appeals Court

Quote from Mercor:

Happened to Sen. Stevens in Alaska, helped get 60 votes for the senate:

In 2008, Stevens was embroiled in a federal corruption trial as he ran for re-election to the Senate. He was found guilty, and eight days later was narrowly defeated at the polls.[5] Stevens is the most senior U.S. Senator to have ever lost a reelection bid. However, prior to sentencing, the indictment was dismissed—effectively vacating the conviction—when a Justice Department probe found evidence of gross prosecutorial misconduct.[6]

In fairness, that prosecution was initiated by the brain dead Bush administration. Of course, no republican AG would dare interfere with the decisions of the "career", ie liberal democrat, attorneys in the Justice Department. Several of them should have been fired and disbarred for their misconduct in that case, but I doubt there were any consequences. Just like there haven't been in the IRS scandal.
