Tom DeLay: "Thank God there are still more that love me"

"You never know how well an election will go for an indicted person," DeLay acknowledged in an interview with Reuters after a recent breakfast with Houston-area realtors.

"Getting beat up by the national media and the Houston Chronicle has taken its toll," DeLay said, referring to the local newspaper. "It's polarized my district, you either love me or hate me. Thank God there are still more that love me."

The same article cites a December poll that gives him a favorable rating of 37%, unfavorable at 52%.

A more recent poll finds his numbers even lower: 28% favorable, 60% unfavorable

His Democratic challenger wins in both polls.
