In U.S. politics, "Democrat in name only" ("DINO") is a pejorative term used to describe politicians of the Democratic Party to indicate that their governing or legislating style is more like a member of the Republican Party. The terms Blue Dog Democrat and Yellow dog Democrat have been more popular than DINO for describing heterodox Democrats, particularly conservative Democrats.
