How about a pattern on each line?

I would use something like the following:
The regular expression will match one or more “word” characters starting at the beginning of the line followed by at least one whitespace character. It will remove the word and any following whitespace. If a line can contain only a single word — and you still want it removed — you could use alternation to match either whitespace or the end of line.
