1. Sure, goes back a few years. It was used to describe someone
who would vote for a yellow dog, as long as it was a Democrat.

5. Someone who is so loyal
That they would vote for a yellow dog if the Democrats ran one.

6. Such a dyed-in-the-wool Democrat that, if a yellow dog ran...
...for office as a Democrat, you'd vote for it. :)

10. I like new definition of 'Santorum', as in Savage Love*.
(*Savage Love, written by Dan Savage, is a write-in sex advice column in many 'alternative' newspapers.) OR Look up Santorum in Google.

11. Like a "Jeffery Dahmer ReTHUGlican"?
Like people in Indiana. They'd vote for Jeffery Dahmer if he had ran as a ReTHUG...And probably let him babysit the kids, too....

I can't wait to get a bigger place so that we can adopt a dog. There is a severe lack of chewing around here.
