There were hiccups, too. Without my knowledge, my editors on Feb. 1 posted a blog item in my name saying “I survived Day One of my February Sarah Palin moratorium” – which itself violated the moratorium. A correction to the item, “the sentence as written above was posted by an editor,” didn’t help, because it raised the question of why something appeared under my byline that I hadn’t written. (This was a first. I think.)

Another close call came when I appeared, live from the Conservative Political Action Conference, on MSNBC’s Last Word with Lawrence O’Donnell. He introduced the segment by mentioning Palin. Luckily, he instead asked me about Donald Trump, saving me from a Whoopi Goldberg-style walk off.
