Unusually Wide Stance 

The excuse a man uses to dissuade others from thinking he is guilty of soliciting gay sex in an airport bathroom, whereby he "accidentally" placed his foot on the foot of the patron in the next stall. Predominantly seen in elected officials.
Senator Larry Craig: "I am not gay, I have never been gay, I did not approach an undercover officer in the airport and solicit gay sex. I simply have an unusually wide stance"

Politics as unusual 

Irrational behavior by politicians who mischaracterize their behavior as a calculated change from the politics as usual. In practice the behavior is often inconsistent or bizarre and can be seen by many rational observers as a freak show. However, there are some people who want to believe there is substance despite being illogical and the evidence to the contrary.
Bush's compassionate conservativism was a new version of "politics as unusual" as it was neither compassionate nor conservative but instead was inconsistent with the core values of compassion and conservatism.

Sarah Palin has created a cliché of "politics as unusual" with her bizarre behavior, and unusual characteristics which she tries sell as a preferred moral and ethical alternative.

Sarah's ability to explain her foreign policy credentials ("you can see Russia from Alaska...", "Russian diplomats fly over Alaska on their way to the USA...") in a way that would be impressive to the average KMART shopper.

Sarah has made parents of minor unwed mothers who are still in high school the ideal candidate for family values.

Sarah said a Governor should resign when under fire to save the government cost providing information on ethic violations to the public becomes too high.

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.
"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
