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.

language, the 2008 election

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

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