  • - a candidate/president who makes you feel better about yourself and your situation, although nothing about yourself or your situation has actually changed.

    I first saw it on a blog the other day (5/3/09), but the first reference to it I can find is from a 2006 Harper's article.

    While the blog and the article seemed to be saying that's all Obama is, I disagree. Nevertheless, I do like the word.
