Politico

Politico

: "For the multimedia political news venture, see The Politico."A politico or pol is a person involved in politics. From Latin, the word originally meant politician, but in more modern usage it also refers to people involved in political behavior of any sort. For instance, the term is often used to describe people who have overly political viewpoints or who spend considerable time "playing politics" within an organization.
