Ah, so because some hypothetical Joe Sixpack doesn't know who DeLay
is, he magically is no longer a major player in American politics?

See my reply to Joe - he was never a real player, at least not on his
own.

I said he was a "big name" on the right, and you said he wasn't. I
said he was the majority leader of the house and you went into your
song-and-dance about how Average Joe wouldn't know him.

I pointed out to you that equating whether Joe Average knows him to
him being a political big name was irrelevant.

And now you've changed the discussion once again to say that he's
not a "major player .. on his own". Well of course not. He's a
frontman for the Ridiculous Right. That's exactly the point; he is a
big name who is trotted out for things like re-districting (remember
that?) and other "issues" where they need a sleazeball with no ethics
or self-respect.

HTH, but I doubt it.
