You could also do:

DEALERS = ["Dealer North", "Dealer East", "Dealer South", "Dealer West"]
VULNERABILITIES = [
  "Neither vulnerable", "North-South vulnerable",
  "East-West vulnerable", "Both vulnerable",
]
CONDITIONS = [
    (DEALERS[j], VULNERABILITIES[(i + j)%4])
    for i in range(4) for j in range(4)
]

If you don't care about the order in which the conditions are listed,
you could use

CONDITIONS = itertools.product(DEALERS, VULNERABILITIES)

(But maybe you do, I haven't looked at the code)
