I like the term "bull goose loony" from "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" by Ken Kesey, a novel about a mental hospital. Then there's (from "This Dog'll Hunt: An Entertaining Texas Dictionary" by Wallace O. Chariton), "lead steer" and "big biscuit in the pan." And there's "alpha wolf" and "lead dog." And, from the cartoon "Rocky and Bullwinkle," "Fearless Leader."
