A
phrase
coined by
William Safire
, when he was a
speech
writer for
Spiro Agnew
. It referred, in general, to "
liberals
" (i.e. anyone who disagreed with the
Nixon
administration, and with Agnew - Nixon's
pitbull
- in particular) and the "
liberal media
". Having won the hearts and minds of voters via the
populist
route, Nixon and Agnew felt the need to keep up the attack on the "
effete snobs
" (another Safirism?) who would ruin
America
; then Dick or Ted would play another 18 holes.
