| 1. | Talleyrand | ||
|
When a person is skilled politically. The word comes from Charles Maurice de Talleyrand-Périgord (1754-1838), the brilliant, coldly political, and womanizing French politician who survived through a turbulent French history by switching sides and making the right moves politically. "He would have to be a Talleyrand to talk his way out of this one!"
