Editor & Publisher reports on a Gallup poll that shows Gen. David Petreaus, the leader of the military's "surge" strategy in the Iraq war, is polling well and "appears to command considerable respect from the average American ... boosting the chances that his much-publicized September report on the 'surge' will be treated as credible by most."
This is, of course, terrible news to the DailyKos/MoveOn wing of the Democratic Party, which is hoping to undermine the war effort by portraying the Petreaus report as not credible.
Problem is, the news media is increasingly not following the DailyKos/MoveOn script and, instead, is carrying more and reporting of military success in Iraq, and Americans' support for the war - and for President Bush - is rising.
