How about that

I hereby nominate "Obamacon" at the Word of the Election.

I saw Andrew Sullivan use it a lot to describe self-identifying conservatives who, like himself, support Obama. But now I'm seeing a lot of people using it, and often regarding themselves, as well. Good.

Obamacon sounds like a really cool SF convention :)

Obamacon sounds like a Transformer.

Or where the pro-Obama Dungeons and Dragons crowd will go over the weekend.

I've heard of 'Obamaton' but not 'Obamacon'.

(Obamatons are people who blindly follow and obey Obama's campaign like robots (i.e. automatons))
