Looks like Eric Schmitt has a new website--I guess to campaign to be JD's VP. senatorericschmitt.com
Schmitt
Schmitt: (verb) \ˈshmit\

1. A sudden and urgent gastrointestinal revolt in which the body issues an unmistakable, nonnegotiable evacuation order that causes a considerable mess and great humiliation.

2. To suffer a sudden, public, and spectacular political collapse, especially after overconfidently attempting a partisan attack.

3. To create such an avoidable mess that one’s credibility, message, and electoral prospects are left in tatters.

Example: “I ended up with that cyclosporiasis invection from tainted lettuce and I schmitted myself in the grocery store trying to buy some Pepto.”

Example: “During the hearing performance, he didn’t land a blow—he completely schmitted himself.”

@corbden I was more upset by Jackson's omission of The Scouring of the Shire, although I can understand why he felt a thinly-veiled rant against communism could be seen as out of place today.
