'''Democrat Party''' is the grammatically correct term for the [[Democratic Party]]. The Party is not "democratic", and proper nouns like "Democrat" are not properly converted into adjectives by adding "ic" as a suffix. It is not the "Republicanic Party," or the "Libertarianic Party", or a "Smith-ic Wedding." Predictably, many Democrats dislike the term, perhaps because they prefer the illusion that their party is somehow more "democratic" than other parties.
