DeLay steps down as majority leader after conspiracy charge

CNN is reporting

A grand jury in Austin charged DeLay, 58, and two associates already facing criminal charges with a single count of criminal conspiracy, accusing them of improperly funneling $190,000 in corporate donations to a DeLay-founded political action committee to Republican candidates for the Texas Legislature in 2002.

The move forced DeLay, R-Texas, to temporarily give up his position as the Republican leader in the House of Representatives
