I have to say, it is frustrating to me that McCain/Palin is not AGGRESSIVELY refuting the MSM’s “bridge to nowhere” mischaracterizations that keep popping up everywhere, almost hourly, claiming she lied about the bridge...the latest one in the WSJ:

They keep saying “she kept the money” without mentioning that the monies kept were general revenue funds, not earmarks, and certainly not the original amount of federal money set aside for the bridge.

The MSM is desperately trying to create a “I was for the 87 billion dollars before I was against it” Kerry-type of gaffe and apply it to Palin, despite the ample evidence she was talking about state funding and the fact that Ted Stevens himself has said she opposed federal funding for the bridge....Obama and the lefty blogs are already running with it like their hair’s on fire.

We’ve come too far to backslide even an inch because of moonbat smears....Palin needs to address this NOW, firmly and substantively, and not wait for the ABC interview tomorrow night.

My 2 cents.

I think I see a new swiftboaresqe slogan coming...

OBAMA and BIDEN voted FOR the bridge before PALIN voted AGAINST it.
