What is Schmuckabee?
1.
Affectionate nickname for a semi-serious Republican contender for the Republican nomination in the presidential election of 2008. Namely, the former governor of Arkansas: Michael Huckabee.
It is a compound word that incorporates the Yiddish term "schmuck," meaning "Penis" or "Jerk" along with the name of the common honeybee.
He is best known for his banana pancakes and his theological views on "Bee Heaven" as depicted by the Christian allegory in the well known "Unicorn Honey Bee Magic" tapestry on view in the Cloisters in New York City.
On conceding defeat in the Republican primaries of 2008, John McCain famous last words were: "Honey, Schmuckabee!"
