To Pelosi is to overreact to a promotion to the extent you take authority over every other division in the company, ie., negotiating sales contracts from the accounting office. When an employee pelosies, that employee is operating under the hope that undermining the leadership in other parts of the company will elevate her career, and she operates with complete disregard to the damage it does to the company over all. To Feinstein is to use your position to benefit family members who hold ownership positions in companies that receive contracts, and to make Martha Stewart look like a minor player on insider trading. To Reid has several meanings. It can mean a form of corruption, but it is dwarfed by the verb Feinstein. To Reid is to surreptitiously negotiate real estate deals for enormous profit by using the manipulation of government entities to increase their value. Reiding something may also mean verbally distorting the actual situation until it no longer resembles reality. To Clinton is to seek power for the purpose of having it. And to get women...Clintonian is synonymous with Machiavellian. To Kerry is to betray principles and entities that you claim loyalty to and leadership of. To Gore is to exaggerate, to present such an imbalanced view of a topic that it no longer resembles the original subject. Also, to Gore is to lie so outlandishly as to be humorous. An example of a Gorism: "I invented the internet". To Schumer is to capitalize on publicity, preen for the cameras, and fabricate scandals for the politics of personal destruction. Miguel Estrada was Schumered out of nomination for the Supreme Court. While Schumering someone generally can mean anyone, it is most often used to describe attacks on Hispanics. To Edwards is to use looks and money as a substitute for ethics and intelligence. To Obama is to be both rich and poor, an ordinary guy and uberintelligent, an American and multinational, Christian and muslim, black and white and Hawaiian, the anti-Hillary while voting exactly like her, liberal and moderate. In order for someone to Obama, they must be able to say and do anything and be believable. To Murtha is to suffer from dementia and still have credibility and power. This term outmodes the term Byrd'.
