So the question will remain: having framed the Schiavo case as "murder" and "barbarism" and "medical terrorism," does Tom DeLay now just say, "Well, the family had its day in court," and forget about it? Or will the culture-war implications of the case make it escalate?
Having set this issue up as he has, DeLay really can't back down. Though, I suppose the clock is ticking and there is a time limit.
