>>And you back that claim up by using the formal, “Mrs.”<<
It is impossible to satisfy some people.
I think calling Mrs. Palin by her name is properly respectful. I don’t know her personally, so I do not use the familiar “Sarah” which is bandied about.
You may be correct about the use of “Governor” but I note that appalachian isn’t consistently used by some people. I stand by my polite use of her name.
Apparently PDS cuts both ways.
I defy anyone to find where I have said anything disrespectful of Mrs. Palin. Suggesting she may not win and may not be the proper candidate is not disrespectful. Also, teasing some of her supporters is ALSO not disrespectful to her.
Just for your continuing education, appalachian is about a mountain chain. The word you want is appellation. You are welcome.
Just don't try that on Senator Boxer . .
