Clymer = a**holeYep ! Cobra, there is a little story behind that.
During Election 2000, Bush and Cheney were on a stage campaigning or something. There was a lot of commotion and Bush was talking to Cheney. Bush looked at Adam Clymer (NY Times reporter, I think) and told Cheney that Clymer was a "major-league a$$". Cheney replied "Oh, yeah. Big time." That is also what folks are referring to when you hear Cheney called "Big Time" .....
Thanks for the clarification. Ever since I joined FR, I've always wondered what the expression meant.
