Yet another silly political neologism, just like santorum. Folks, could you please, please, please keep your politics out of the encyclopedia? VoiceOfReason 06:03, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
- Link to original debate. As with any political topic, a fierce target for advertisement and puppetry, as undoubtedly will be this nomination. VoiceOfReason 06:07, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

- Strong Delete ridiculous blogism. Danny Lilithborne 06:32, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, blog-based neologism. Having been mentioned in a small number of news articles is not sufficient to establish this as a widely used term. Andrew Levine 09:43, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
- Delete and redirect Plame affair. No indication that this phrase was anything other than a short-term fad. Demiurge 10:05, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

- Delete per nomination. This isn't even a neologism, it looks more like something made up in school (or something) one day. --Dennisthe2 00:56, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

- Comment In fairness to the article's creator (and those who support it being kept), the term is more than a WP:NFT; it is in fact widely used in the conservative blogosphere to describe the anticipation in the liberal blogosphere for the outcome of Patrick Fitzgerald's investigation. That doesn't, IMHO, make it worthy of an article in the encyclopedia. VoiceOfReason 06:14, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

- I'm actually fairly certain it originated in the liberal blogosphere, if not in the opinion pages first. The conservative side enjoyed using it after it fizzled. --badlydrawnjeff talk 14:12, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
- Delete but I support transferring some of the material in this article to the Plame affair article. - 12ptHelvetica 03:07, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
- Keep, extremely widely used term to describe something that never happened. --badlydrawnjeff talk 05:23, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
