Heather and The Hammer
Rep. Heather Wilson has been named by the League of Conservation Voters as one of the top ten members of Congress who are financially tied to Rep. Tom DeLay and his oil interests. These companies, many of which have donated to Wilson's campaigns, are seeking to eliminate any financial liability they have in terms of MBTE pollution, a gasoline additive, in the current energy bill.
See pages 32 and 33 of the LCV report , entitled "Tom DeLay's Tainted Team: An Analysis of House Members Who Side With Tom DeLay and MBTE Special Interests Over Their Constitutents," for information exposing Heather's financial ties to DeLay and the oil industry.
Enlightening, isn't it? Pass it on.

Yep. We were planning to tie her as closely to Tom DeLay as possible. It might work next time, though.

Depends if we get a strong candidate to run against her. As it stands now, it appears that Attorney General Patricia Madrid is being annointed by the Guv. Certainly doesn't excite me.
