politically fluid

Denoting or relating to a person who does not identify themselves as having a fixed political affiliation. It shifts over time, depending on the situation or issue at hand. One may feel like a Republican one day or a Democrat another day or neutral, or pieces of several political parties at once.

I am a republican who is pro-choice, which makes me politically fluid.

political handjob

A reference to some of the more negative aspects of quid pro quo politics.

As part of the whole Ukrainian deal, we may get a stray political handjob here and there - but I intend to get my goddamn Biden investigation out of this ugly mess!

Bi-political

Somebody who sees the upsides and downsides to both the Republican and Democratic parties. Not necessarily a person who falls in the middle of the spectrum, rather one who has views that align and conflict with both major US political parties.

Did you see that guy go into the bar where they have both fiscally responsible initiatives but are still socially liberal? I really think he’s bi-political. Do you get that vibe from him, too?

politics of diversion

When politicians focus on issues that are controversial but in reality have little or no effect on most people in order to divert attention from more important issues they don't want to deal with

voter: "I'm unemployed and I just lost my health insurance, what are you going to do to fix the economy and make healthcare affordable?"

politician: "Well, we need to ban same-sex marriage and flag desecretion."

voter: "WTF?! What does that have to do with anything, stop the politics of diversion and tell me what you are going to do about the real problems facing this country!"

polite banana

The last banana in a bunch, the one that is almost alway over ripe before anyone gets to it.

The over ripeness of the banana causes a rash of politeness in people...

Jane: Can I offer you this last banana?
John: No, it is ok, you can have it.
Jane: No...I must insist, you have it...
John: No really...it is your banana, you have it...

(This demonstrates how the last banana in the bunch can become a polite banana...no matter what state of brown it is in)
