You could look it up . . .

The top ten words looked up in Merriam-Webster's online dictionary this year were: 1. blog 2. incumbent 3. electoral 4. insurgent 5. hurricane 6. cicada 7. peloton 8. partisan 9. sovereignty and 10. defenestration. Today's challenge: use all ten in a sentence.

"Florida's insurgent 'Hurricane' blog criticized the incumbents for electoral shenanigans, which it compared to a plague of partisan cicadas roaming the state in a peloton and threatening its sovereignty with defenestration." (Not sure if that really makes any sense, though.)
