Several people have pushed forward Mark Steyn's DIABLO. Here was the first. It's been years now since he first coined it. So why has it failed to catch on?

If even popular conservative writer Mark Steyn couldn't bring about the acronym's acceptance, the reason must be that it is not good enough. Could be because of too many syllables. Probably because it is not harsh enough. (Even Democrats -- having been taken over by elitist demagogues -- are no longer democratic.) Maybe because it's Spanish.

The top of our entire political system, both parties, has been co-opted by the same moneyed global interests. Don't believe that ours are the only national borders being effaced. Look what is happening to them in Western-based nations world wide: Europe, UK, Australia, NZ. Meanwhile, the tyrannies let out their storm troops while deepening the enslavement of the bulk of their populations. SKUNCs fits the world-wide operatives -- so what do we call the traitorous members of the GOP? Even if the Dems were well-known by all Americans as monsters, DIABLO sounds devilish, and not demonic.

Conservatives may never, as a group, agree over a new acronym to describe the rotters whom we formerly called rinos. I've given you good reasons why I've arrived at the opinion that it needs to be nastier than DIABLO. It must convey the traitorous nastiness of the miscreants to whom it refers.
