Indicted top Republican steps down


Republican Tom DeLay says he will step aside as House majority leader after a Texas grand jury indicts him on a conspiracy charge. DeLay says he is blameless and calls the charge an act of "political retribution."

DeLay and two associates are accused of improperly funneling corporate donations to Republican candidates in 2002.
