Obamaloney and such have been talked about as recent blends, but I haven't noticed too many newly coined nicknames for the pols of the moment. We've talked about the topic for past election cycles (like here), but I'm waiting to hear more.
I've recently heard Romney referred to as Robme, for instance, but that's hardly caught on, as far as I can see. Today, Wonkette refers to him as "Willard Mittsworth Moneybaggs Romney IV". Maybe a tad over the top, but that's where Wonkette lives.
Surely there's more out there, dear readers. Help us out ...

I don't know how many of these 80 nicknames for Romney are in actual use, but I know I've heard Mittens, King of Bain, and of course Meh Romney. I doubt Obama's recent Romney Hood will catch on.
Oh, and there's the Photoshop-inspired anagram R-Money.
Charles Pierce of Esquire has dubbed Paul Ryan "the zombie-eyed granny starver," and it seems to be sticking. See the #ZEGS hashtag.
Thank you thank you thank you. My life is now vastly better. Wow.
And Stephanie Miller refers to Ryan as 'Eddie Munster'.
REVERSIBLE Mittens
'Mittens' is my personal favorite.
