9d Let downs

Turns out to be idealogue.

Many thanks to you all.

Well, I think ideAlogue means a theorist whilst ideOlogue means someone who advocates an ideology.
So I think ideAlogue fits the clue better, but I'm willing to be persuaded otherwise.... :-))

Happy to help :-))

Chambers states that IDEALOGUE is a misspelling of IDEOLOGUE. I'm confused!
