A short lexicon for the next four years. Or hopefully eight.
Nobama - kinda cute conservative response to Democrats using Obama's iconic name as a marketing tool. Pisses off the easily offended, but by itself it's pretty harmless. Like in the 80s when Republicans chanted "stay the course" and Jim Hightower started calling it "stay the curse."

Mobama - 2012 reelection slogan

Slobama - for the blue dogs and moderates who want to scale back the stimulus package

Crobama - a crow bar to pry the blue dogs and moderates out of their chickenshit past

Brobama - slogan appealing to the niche market of dudes who spend a little too much time talking about their
"bromances".

Snobama - exclusive club for Alaskan Democrats. I know yall are up there somewhere guys.

Probama - lobbyists. They'll always be with us

Flobama - freestyle rappers for hope

Yobama - presidential photo op with said rappers

Fauxbama - DINOs for the 2010s

Grobama - shorthand for the coming economic recovery. Or maybe a reference to Malia when that poor child finally hits her growth spurt.

D'oh'bama - the guy is polished & professional, but no man, especially the guy who said "clinging to religion," is totally gaffe-proof. Someday in the next 4/8 years, he will taste foot

Blobama - hopefully a reference to the first time he goes sailing at Hyannisport

Robama - in case it's a calm day at Hyannisport

Tobama - in case he gets tired of rowing and there's a coast guard boat nearby

Globama - when his energy program (inevitably) starts building or refurbishing nuclear plans

Joebama - (no longer available)

Cobama - 12-step group for liberals addicted to marketing puns
