cowboy wannabe 

An individual, usually male, that attires oneself in Western Wear for the sole purpose of engaging in intercourse. Normally has no logical reason for said attire, as the individual in question is usually not from the midwest, did not grow up on a ranch, and did not have a career attempting to remain upright on an angry bull.

Usually spotted at "Line Dancing Night", or in major metropolitan areas, hundreds of miles away from the nearest real "Cowboys".

Identified by; large, shiny belt buckle, excruciatingly tight "Wrangler" jeans, cowboy boots, plaid or sewn-design long-sleeve shirt (tucked into above mentioned jeans), and a pre-requisite "Cowboy" hat. The most desperate will also showcase a "Bolo" Tie, which can be used to strangle the offending "wannabe".

Will be easily reconizable in a group (esp. while dancing) due to first two inches of the fingers being trapped in the pockets of the jeans (theoretically due to their extreme constriction). Dancing will resemble a man playing pocket-pool while being Tasered.

Favors weak, tasteless, flaccid beer such as "Budweiser" or "Coors".

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
