Tom DeLay convicted

Former Congressman Tom DeLay's state trial ended with his conviction this past Wednesday, on charges of money laundering and conspiracy to commit money laundering.  The sentence could be anywhere from five years to life imprisonment.

The former Congressman has called the verdict a miscarriage of justice, and I agree.  Federal inquiries resulted in no charges being filed against him, but why the charges in state court?  There's also another question: was Tom DeLay charged with something that occurred before it became illegal?  If so, why the prosecution in the first place?

Knowing how the Left has been going after Tom DeLay for many years now, this verdict sounds much less like justice and more like a political crucifixion.
