Probe Moves Closer to DeLay

Federal prosecutors are moving up the food chain to Tom DeLay, as signified by Tony Rudy’s plea agreement Friday. Roll Call notes that Rudy, a former DeLay aide, shares his lawyer with former colleague Ed Buckham, who Rudy’s plea implicates. “They were Batman and Robin. Tony didn’t do anything without Buckham’s say-so. … Buckham was Batman,” the NY Daily News quotes an unnamed source. Interesting to see how long the dynamic duo uses the same Bat-Lawyer.
