Richard Morrison, the Dem candidate for DeLay’s house district in the last and next elections, sent out an email entitled "My Family is Disappointed" today:
… When my family read in the New York Times that DeLay’s wife and daughter have made over $500,000 since 2001 from DeLay’s various PACs, there was a bit of grousing in the Morrison household …
But I promise you I can stand the pressure. No matter how many times my adorable daughter Haley submits her resume I won’t be hiring her as my campaign manager at a grossly inflated price. Nor will I be hiring my beautiful and talented wife Allyson as a way to funnel campaign contributions into our personal pocketbooks…
My hero Congressman Sam Rayburn once said that there was no way an honest man could get rich in politics. Tom DeLay has certainly done nothing to refute that maxim.
This Morrison fellow, I like the cut of his jib. Makes me wish Massachusetts politics was funnier.

Maura Hennigan’s performance on St. Paddy’s was one of the most painful televised experiences I have ever endured. I wonder what Dunkin Donuts thinks?
