Republican Bexar County DA likely to make political hay out former Democratic Party treasurer's indictment
Junior Bush used his office for his own political ends, particularly devastating the 'justice' department. Bexar County DA, Susan Reed is following suit. Sure, the culprits who embezzled money should face justice, but don't time their arrests to make political hay.
Here's a question local Democrats are asking with increasing agitation: Justhow long should it take to charge a man whose attorney has already acknowledged his client took the money?
They'll hate the answer.
They're antsy about an indictment of former party treasurer Dwayne Adams arriving close to the general elections in November. They worry that a potential mess of sordid details from the investigation into the theft of more than $200,000 from the party could inject an ick factor into down-ballot races where the names aren't as familiar to the average voter as party labels are.

It seems like if a Republican pursues the prosecution more swiftly, it's "a rush to judgment," but if the Republican takes a slower more thoughtful apporach it's "making political hay."
What will you have to say about ex-Democrat (now Republican candidate for judge) Angelica Hernandez and her prosecution of fraudster Mauricio Celis? If she hurries will you admit she is not trying to "make political hay" by delaying as you accuse the San Antonio DA or will you accuse her of a rush to justice?
