Thaumatolatry

Thaumatolatry - a marveling of worship
with the seven wonders of the ancient world
Tomatolatry - a tomato worship of deadly demagogues
where you could smash the tomato in their faces
Potatolatry - a potato worship of playing politics
in which you can be a vp and spell the word with an e.
Idiotic idolatry - of thaumatolatry - think twice

(with apologies to the tomato and the potato!)

How about: Potatolatry - a potato worship of playing politics by passing that which is deemed too hot to hold onto, or flinging at ones' opponent a potato too hot to catch.

You defined it better
you are a go-getter.
It was early in the morn'
Therefore definition not born.
Thanks, may I use it?
What a beautiful fit!

Use it all you like,
I cannot say it's mine,
your idea, a bit of the daily headlines,
a bit of humor,
There it is. It makes me laugh, I'm glad you laugh too.
