One who follows a politician based solely on personal likability or relatability while often ignoring said politician's stances on issues or past behavior
"Dude, do you even know what his policies are?"
"Not at all. I freely admit I'm a total Palindrone."

A rambling or incoherent speech made by a politician, which makes as much sense backwards as forwards.
This word is a pun on the word "palindrome" (a sentence which reads the same backwards as forwards), constructed from Sarah Palin (the 2008 Republican candidate for Vice President) and "drone" (monotonous speech).
Here's an example of a palindrone, as uttered by Sarah Palin herself: "I know that John McCain will do that and I, as his vice president, families we are blessed with that vote of the American people and are elected to serve and are sworn in on January 20, that will be our top priority is to defend the American people." (Interview with Charlie Gibson, 9/11/2008)
Did you hear that clip of George Bush on "The Daily Show" last night? It was one long palindrone.

Extreme right-wing supporters of Republican vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin who follow her blindly and uncritically (e.g., those who see her interview flubs as marks of homespun authenticity, and who, presumably, would praise her eloquence whether she read her talking points backwards, forward, or upside down).
While many voters regard Palin's gaffes and misstatements with concern, Palindrones see them as a badge of honor for the "Joe Sixpack" crowd.

a sentence that doesn't make any meaningful sense read forward, backword, or in any combination of the words used. Related to palindrome; a spout of mindless gibberish as could only be told by Sarah Palin.
More palindrone from that candidate: "As for that VP talk all the time, I'll tell you, I still can't answer that question until somebody answers for me what is it exactly that the VP does every day?"

–noun
1. Vacuous political rhetoric of which one cannot make head or tail.

1. Not to belabor the point, but could you please avoid tossing palindrones at me and give me a specific example of how you would solve the problem?
2. Expect a lot of palindrones in the Vice Presidential debate.

Palindrone, Noun: a speech given by or emulating in style a speech given by Sarah Palin. Palindronic, Adjective: like a palindrone; boring, unbelievable
I was fed up with enduring one palindrone after another delivered by the running mate; I went to a lecture on the workings of the brain, but unfortunately, the speaker delivered a palindronic soliloquy of disconnected thoughts that left the audience wondering, "Huh?"
