'''Liberal denial''' is the tendency of [[liberals]] to conceal or deny that they are [[liberals]], and even to object when identified as a [[liberal]] by someone else.
[[Hillary Clinton]], for example, refused to admit in a presidential debate in 2007 that she is a [[liberal]]. [[Michael Dukakis]] refused for a while to admit that he was a [[liberal]] during the 1988 presidential campaign, until finally he declared himself to be a [[liberal]] in the sense that President [[Harry Truman]], who served 40 years earlier, was a [[liberal]].
