1. Fleabagger is a term applied to Democratic Party elected officials who having lost the majority in an election, leave their home state and hide out in undisclosed roadside motels in neighboring states for weeks in order to avoid detection and having to return work. In so doing they seek to thwart the democratic political process by denying the quorum necessary for the passage of certain legislation such as state budget bills. 2. The term is also applied to their unelected supporters who stay behind in the home state to occupy public buildings, often squatting in sleeping bags on the floor, in order to obstruct the democratic process. Fleabaggers, who are unfailingly union members, can stay away from their jobs for days without fear of dismissal.
