Political Addictionary's There Oughta Be a Word - Flip-Floppery

POSTED BY: Addictionary

It's time once again to play There Oughta Be a Word, the crazy, topsy-turvy game in which we turn the Political Addictionary on its head and ask you not to think up a definition for the word we provide, but to think up a word for the definition we provide.

This week's definition goes out to John McCain, circa 2006...

(verb) To completely change your stance on a political issue 180 degrees to gain traction with the base of your party.
