Tom Delay To Dance w/Stars

Tom DeLay says he's got dancing in his blood and "jumped at the chance" to join the cast of "Dancing with the Stars." "I love dancing … you've got to love dancing if you're from Texas," DeLay told Chris Cuomo on "Good Morning America." "Conservatives can have fun too. Conservatives can let their hair down… and put on some dancing shoes." Fans of "Dancing With the Stars" were surprised to learn on Monday that the former House Majority Leader would join the season nine cast. "The Hammer," a nickname given for his ability to hammer legislation through Congress, will join fellow cast members Donny Osmond , Kathy Ireland, Macy Gray and others on the "Dancing With the Stars" season premiere on September 21/ABC News.

Question: Will you be more/less likely to watch "Dancing with the Stars" as a result of former House Majority Leader Tom Delay being included among the dancers?
