[ "Primary" ]
1: Verb. Usually as "to primary." To propose a challenger candidate against an incumbent politician during the primary and then do everything you can to insure the neophyte challenger is victorious over the incumbent. Thus, the incumbent becomes a regular citizen again and is free to pursue the rest of his or her political ambitions overtly bought out as a lobbyist or Washington attorney. This is the tool of last resort when a politician no longer represents the interests of his or her constituency, but of a special interest or heavy-hitting contributor that overshadows the will of the people back home.
* e.g., ... I promise to primary any politician who votes against Social Security, Medicare, or Veterans' Benefits.

[ "Primary Meat" ]
1: Primary Meat (n) is defined as the main meat ingredient in a sandwich.
The term identifies the defining meat on an individual sandwich and does not characterize a meat on it's own merits. For example, in a BLT bacon is the primary meat; on a turkey club, bacon is not the primary meat.
The Primary Meat on a sandwich may or may not determine the name of the sandwich:
* e.g., ... There are a few "tiebreaker" scenarios:
-Tiebreaker 1: When multiple meats are on a sandwich, as with a club (ham, turkey, bacon), the highest quantity meat becomes the Primary Meat.
-Tiebreaker 2: If multiple meats are present in the same quantities, the meat which provides the most flavor becomes the Primary Meat. In our example above of a club sandwich with ham, turkey and bacon, if there are 2 fingers of each meat, then bacon would become the Primary Meat.
[ "Primary Meat" ]
2: A Turkey Club is named for its Primary Meat, but an Italian Club is named for the collective ingredients of the sandwich, not a singular Primary Meat.
* e.g., ... (Exceptions to this case would be flavored meats such as cajun turkey, smoked ham)
