"Political hack" is a pejorative term describing a person who is more loyal to a particular political party than to their own sense of ethics.
The term "hired gun" is often used in tandem to further describe the moral bankruptcy of the "hack".
When a group of "political hacks" of a similar political affiliation get together, they are sometimes called a "political hack pack.
