Nick Clegg/YMMV

• Ensemble Darkhorse - Was pretty obscure until the televised debates.
• Growing the Beard - The Times backed the Lib Dems in the Oldham East and Saddleworth by-election for this reason, claiming they'd gone from protest vote to legitimate party of government despite knowing that doing so would be immensely unpopular no matter what they did.
• Launcher of a Thousand Ships - There's plenty of Real Person Slash about him getting coalesced by David Cameron, Gordon Brown, and just about every other major British political figure out there.
  • The Guardian credited the Internet with the word "Clameron", the Portmanteau Couple Name for Clegg/Cameron. Given the kinds of sites they'd have to be visiting to find people using that term in the first place, it seems the Guardian is staffed by fangirls and -boys.
• Memetic Mutation - "I agree with Nick." Also, the aforementioned 'no more than 30 women'.
  • After the Tory papers scraped the bottom of the barrel to mudsling him during the campaign, Twitter users pretty much instantly got together and called anything and everything #nickcleggsfault.
• Never Live It Down - Again, 'No more than 30 women', since many take it to mean literally '30 women', turning it into a bit of a Beam Me Up, Scotty moment. The question was "How many are we talking: 10, 20, 30?", to which Clegg replied: "No more than 30 ... it's a lot less than that.". Then taken entirely out of context by every paper thereafter.
