The NY Times wrote a piece today about Obama’s strategy to counter Gov. Palin in the coming weeks. In the original article the Times wrote this:

Some Democrats were urging Mr. Obama’s campaign not to underestimate the potential power of Ms. Palin’s electrifying speech to the Republican convention on Wednesday night even among voters not aligned with either party: On liberal talk-radio shows and on left-leaning blogs on Thursday, some Democrats fretted that the Obama campaign should fight back hard to avoid being caricatured as Senator John Kerry was four years ago.

Then a little while later it was changed to this:

Some Democrats were urging Mr. Obama’s campaign not to underestimate the potential power of Ms. Palin’s speech, even among voters not aligned with either party: On liberal talk-radio shows and on left-leaning blogs, some Democrats said the Obama campaign should fight back hard to avoid being caricatured as Senator John Kerry was four years ago when he ran against President Bush.

Whoa! That was a close one. They can’t let people think her speech was ‘electrifying’ it could have negative consequences for Barack Obama! There’s no telling how many people may have seen that word before it could be removed.

I can’t imagine how many puff pieces they’re gonna have to write for Obama to make up for such a careless mistake.
