Default Scozzafava-now a word in the urban dictionary-Scozzafavaed

Quote:
You know you've made it when you're in the dictionary. But you know you've made it in a humorous way when you appear in the Urban Dictionary.

UrbanDictionary.com, which tracks pop culture terms, has added one more: Scozzafavaed. Referring to Dede Scozzafava, the moderate Republican assemblywoman who pulled out of New York's District 23 race and threw her support behind the Democrat.

To be "Scozzafavaed", as defined by UrbanDictionary.com, is to be "Purged of moderation, e.g., within in a Congressional district." It can also mean "Inadvertently revealed internal chaos, e.g., within in a political Party."

As an adjective: "Doomed due to popular support of the GOP electorate."
