Someone who is sitting on a fence with their mug hanging off one side, and their wamp hanging off the other side... procrastinating about making a decision.
Have also heard in reference to someone way intelligent beyond their education.
Also a word for ear wax...
Don't know if any of these is what you are looking for...

Well a Mugwump (with a u ) would be this... The Mugwumps were Republicans who dissed the Republican Party and supported Democrat Grover Cleveland in the presidential election of 1884.
The term originated as an Algonquian word meaning chief or leader..

Snuffy - thats funny!! Sad and probably all to true
Bill, - you looked it up but, it's "wamp" as opposed to wump. That's what those politicians need is a good wumping!
