Great Petri Coverage and a Call For Him to Return All the DeLay Money:

Love this paragraph:

Congressman Tom Petri doesn't have all the answers, but he at least knows some of the questions after more than 30 citizens spent an hour asking him about topics ranging from head lice to the federal deficit.

And then he said:

When questioned about a campaign contribution from a political action committee controlled by indicted Congressmen Tom De Lay, Petri explained that DeLay had attended a political fund-raiser in Ripon. Although DeLay had paid for the cost of the trip to the benefit for Petri, Petri was required by law to report the cost of the trip as an in-kind donation to his campaign.


Petri is so wrapped up with DeLay that DeLay helps him raise money? Petri should probably return all the money DeLay's name helped him raise at this event.
