No doubt it was. On the other hand, nobody else seems to be able to remember the difference nowadays either, so why hold the Whig to a different standard, right? And don't get me started on the noun-pronoun disagreements I hear on NPR just about every day.
Considering that the grammar checker on Microsoft Word just suggested "he are" as a correction in something I was writing, maybe I should just give up.

Consider the number of times you can hear "I ain't got no" and other poor grammar usage in Quincy any given day. Are your standards set to high ?
