    I've heard those word. Something about the American revolution, right?

      No, not specifically, but it's certainly as outdated as that event.

    The Tories are alive and well in the UK, and the term is also applied to conservative parties throughout the Commonwealth (including Australia, where the right wing party is ironically named the Liberal Party).
    Whig has fallen into disuse.

    Vegas has the Whigs at -52 for the semi-finals, but +98 for the finals as the Torries have home turf advantage.

    Torries Tories

    Up until the Lib Dems sold out and formed a coalition with Cameron, I was in that camp. I've gone back to Labour (Whig).
