(BUMPED - SCROLL DOWN) - MSM MOVES THE GOAL-POSTS ON PALIN

BEFORE THE SPEECH, THEY ALL SAID IT WAS MAKE OR BREAK.

THEN, SHE HIT IT OUT OF THE PARK.

SO, NOW THEY MOVE THE GOAL-POSTS: NYTIMES:

Easiest Task for Palin May Have Been Speech

ST. PAUL — Gov. Sarah Palin could not have asked for a better setting for her solo debut on the national stage: an audience enthralled with her selection as Senator John McCain’s running mate even before she walked on stage to a roar of approval, after three days in seclusion with some of the country’s most skilled political counselors to write, hone and practice her speech.

THERE'S ONE WORD FOR THE KIND OF "REPORTER" OR "ANALYST" WHO DOES THIS SORT OF THING: SCUM.

THEY DO IT ALL THE TIME: WITH THE IRAQ WAR, THE SURGE, BUSH'S AID TO AFRICA, NCLB, UNEMPLOYMENT NUMBERS, AND SO ON. WHEN WE ACHIEVE OUR GOALS, THEY MOVE THEM.

DON'T FALL FOR IT.

AND... VOTE ACCORDINGLY.
