13. And in DeLay's own words
From a NRO article:

But at this point, the only way a Republican candidate will be on the ballot is as a write-in. “The poll shows that a write-in is doable, that it’s not impossible,” DeLay told me. “Certainly it’s an uphill battle, but it is doable.”

“Doable” is not the most optimistic assessment one might make, so I asked if DeLay is confident that a Republican will be elected. “No, I didn’t say that,” he told me. “I said that people in the 22nd District deserve a choice.”

“So are you confident?” I asked again.

“I’m not confident that I would win,” DeLay answered.
