Blue Dog Democrat

A Blue Dog Democrat is so-called because of the character Dino on the cartoon television show The Flintstones. Dino was a blue dog, and the letters DINO stand for "Democrat In Name Only."

Blue Dog Democrats are also sometimes called "Reagan Democrats." They are conservative, rather than progressive, and have a tendency to align themselves with GOP policies in matters of taxation and spending.

The Blue Dog Democrats are standing in the way of true healthcare reform.

Liberal Democrats

The third largest politial pary in the UK behind the Labour Party and the Conservative Party. Created from a merger of the Liberal Party and the Social Democratic Party. Claim they're moderate, but that's a bald-faced lie. They've got 'Liberal' and 'Democrat' in their party name, for crying out loud!

I wish I wasn't a Liberal Democrat. But alas, that's the best I can do.

Democracy is where any two idiots can vote out a genius.

Democrat Attack Machine

The Democrat Attack Machine is a 1984-esque Goldstein Conspiracy assumed to exist by ideological Republicans who believe everyone who isn't an ideological Republican is either stupid or evil.

The existence of a conspiracy fills the human need to have something to struggle against. It doesn't matter if the Machine exists or doesn't exist, since it offers a banner to rally around for Republicans to divide "us" (the faithful) from "them" (the enemy who must be destroyed)

The "Democrat Attack Machine" is (apparently) made up of every American who is not as rabidly pro-Republican as some Republicans would like.

Trump Democrats

A new moniker that has evolved out of the seeming gutlessness demonstrated by many Trumpian Era Democrats.

The Trump Democrats have shown us what appears to be learned helplessness and this causes many of us to question their true commitment to Constitutional principles as well as their implicit alliances.

Democratic Underground

An online forum exclusively for members of the U.S. Democratic Party and those from the "left" side of the U.S. political spectrum. In the absence of outside conflict or critique, the forum isn't so much a place to develop political and philsophical savvy as much as simply a "hang out" spot to belittle conservatives, trumpet the successes of Democratic officials and candidates, and to serve as a social spot for like-minded people.

George W. Bush angers me! I'm going on Democratic Underground to vent and have fun.

Communism to the extreme.

Ivana: Yo man, I used my democratic rights today cause I live in the United States: a true democracy...
Beejay: Communist!
