Two can play this game (from the Houston Chronicle)
“AUSTIN — Travis County prosecutors today demanded the state’s regional administrative judge remove himself from U.S. Rep. Tom DeLay’s criminal case because he has made political donations to Gov. Rick Perry.”

“District Attorney Ronnie Earle said Administrative Judge B.B. Schraub, a Republican, should not pick the new trial court judge in DeLay’s case because Schraub has consistently given money to Republicans and Perry in particular.”

“This is not simply a request for a Republican administrative judge appointed by a Republican governor to be removed from a case where there is a bitterly partisan Republican defendant, but rather a specific instance where a staunch Republican has repeatedly donated to a central figure in the subject matter,” Earle said.”
Houston Chronicle  The bad news: a judge was removed (probably for partisan reasons). The good news: the longer this drags on toward the 2006 elections the better?
