Refudiate is a word that Palin "invented" or should I say gaffed.

November 2 was the date of the 2010 election when the Tea Party "refudiated" Obama and put so many clowns into Congress.

"The made-up word tweeted and deleted in minutes on Palin’s Twitter feed was announced Monday as the year’s best new word by the New Oxford American Dictionary.
