Historically, I think the expression "teflon politician" (as in "no matter what blunder I make, my PR corps will see that it doesn't stick to my image") was first attributed to pres. Reagan. The invention was then applied and reapplied to the following generations - nobody seems to have claimed copyright for the process.
