In the political realm, an aspect of a candidate that will cost them votes no matter how they spin the situation. This is factually based on the Election of 1960 where John F. Kennedys's religion cost him votes. A woman running for president would have such a factor attached.
John F. Kennedy was a practicing Catholic and the first such Catholic running for president. Due to this fact of his religion, it cost him votes in the election. A number of Nixon votes were for the most part Anti-Kennedy, not Pro-Nixon. Since that time, such an unavoidable factor against a candidate was referred to as a Kennedy Factor.

After a night of heavy partying on campus and before starting his new job as an assistant lawn cutter, Wally awoke only to find he had inadvertently used his recently received diploma from the East Lansing Diploma Factory as an ass wipe. 'That's okay', he consoled himself, 'besides I can always go into any one of the many bars they have here and look for the toilet paper dispensers in the mens room.' Specifically, Wally was referring to certain dispensers that have printed on them: 'Bachelors Degrees From This Institution. Please Take One.' Hell, take several ! Give them to your friends ! You can never have too many ass wipes at the Ol' ELDF !
