The 2012 US presidential election threw up many words that might still be unfamiliar to voters in the UK, such as “boondoggling” (although this was first used over there in 1935). Others appeared for the first time: for example, “Mittology”, “Romnesia” and “Obamacare”. We want new entries in the political lexicon (and definitions) for use in the next UK general election.
