Mog hugging Republican after rally? Not his type! (8)
I believe the answer is:
democrat
This might be a double definition.
'mog hugging republican after rally? not his' is the first definition.
The answer is a person as well as being a singular noun. This is suggested by the definition.
'type' is the second definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for democrat that I've seen before include "Republican's US rival" , "One who believes in government by the whole people" , "Advocate of government by elected representatives" , "Person who believes in government by and for the people" , "One advocates government by the people's elected representatives" .)
