Word: Impasse
Source: New York Times
How it was used: "After a week of shadowboxing, Senators Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama on Wednesday issued their clearest statements yet on the impasse over the disputed Florida and Michigan primaries."
Dictionary Definition:
a position or situation from which there is no escape; deadlock.
2.
a road or way that has no outlet; cul-de-sac.
My sentence: After hours of telling elaborate lies he found himself at an impasse and decided it was better just to tell the truth.
