Like every other paid-up coastal elitist, I've been reading up on the fascinating subject of Palinology.

The go-to place on the web for discussion of Palin's regional accent seems to be Mr. Verb, where the comment thread turns up gems like this one from James Crippen, a linguistics student (and Tlingit!) from the University of Hawai'i, Manoa.

That is interesting. Maine and Vermont too.
