It’s common now to hear, and even by our supposedly learned WH resident, improper usage as follows: “Well, between you and I.” These and other misuses of the object of the prep. are widely heard and will become accepted over time. Still, I have a hard time with it.

One example I hear in speech more than written is using “have “ and “got” together, i.e..”I’ve got more today than yesterday.” That one really grates.
