2. Because the admins
all really want McCain to be the next President? :shrug:

Oh wait... maybe it's just a Google-provided ad over which the site has no control. They only search for keywords. If a site uses the word "McCain" a lot, it gets some McCain ads.

This must be the 10th thread on this.

Ain't gonna change my vote in 08.

5. Thanks for letting us know.
I'm gonna let admin know about this so they can address it appropriately. Obviously, this shouldn't be on DU!
