Even though the election is over, the media refuses to let Sarah Palin fade from memory. News stories galore of her speech at the Governor's meeting in FL and how she's leaving the door open for a 2012 run for President. Is this really news? We got enough of this speculation while the 2008 campaign was still happening! She may have "energized the base" (not sure who these 16 people are as even my Republican friends thought she was a drag on the ticket) but there are so many things I will not miss once she's faded back into the frozen tundra of Alaska.
I will not miss her pit bull style attacks aimed at some unknown "enemy" of all that is middle class and right. I will not miss her smug sense of self-righteousness and "know-it-all" attitude from a woman who attended 6 separate colleges to get a 4 year degree. There is virtually nothing I will miss about her.
I will, however, miss her continued assault on the English language! As the recipient of an EARNED English degree from an accredited university, I wince every time she opens her mouth. I have confirmed that others feel the same way:

This is one of the best blog entries (on the subject) I've ever read...Kudos to you Mr. Cavett! I just wish I'd written it...
