Tom DeLay having to knock on doors, campaign...blames vindictive attacks.
http://www.thehill.com/news/102704/delay.aspx

Who’s that at the door? Tom DeLay

SNIP.."“I love knocking on doors,” DeLay said Sunday, after giving a pep talk to nearly 20 precinct-walking volunteers in his campaign headquarters, tucked near a golf course in the Greatwoods planned community on the outskirts of Houston..."

SNIP..."DeLay’s reelection campaign committee has organized precinct walks in the past, but not to the extent it is now — at least, not in years. His campaign is also airing an estimated $250,000 in television advertisements, after buying virtually no TV time during the past several elections....."

SNIP.." “This is tougher because of this vindictive campaign that’s been waged against me,” said DeLay, sitting in his campaign office as his daughter and campaign manager, Dani Ferro, worked on a laptop computer on a nearby couch.

“I don’t think I’ve ever seen such an attempt to criminalize politics as I’ve seen against me,” DeLay said. “Using the courts and criminal codes and lawyers. I don’t think I’ve ever seen nothing like that.”

3.  "I don’t think I’ve ever seen nothing like that."
Sure he has. This is just the first time he's been on the receiving end of it.

9. Well, considering that Mr. DeLay is a former
exterminator, he's probably used to knocking on doors. Right, Tom? Now that your illustrious career is about to come to an end, keep pounding the pavement.

And by the way, YOU were the one who said, "criminalize politics". Good luck. You'll need it.

10. Why, yes, Tom that's because you were always on the other side doing
the criminalizing!! Karma's a bitch, ain't it, pal!
