Claims of hypocrisy by Democratic leaders include:
- Barack Obama's campaign promises to run the most transparent administration in history
- Al Gore having a home that was not very energy-efficient, despite his heavy campaigning for global warming and environmentalism
- Some of these concerns were exaggerated, and Gore has generally addressed all the valid ones; see Snopes
- Ted Kennedy successfully opposing a wind farm near his property, despite being ostensibly pro-environment
- The farm was later approved after Kennedy's death, with support from the Democratic establishment.
- Charlie Rangel's tax evasion despite being on the Ways and Means Committee
