What do you do for an encore once your Googlebomb project causes Michelle Malkin to unleash her legion of shrieking howler monkeys on you? Well if you're Chris Bowers, you set your sights on John McCain.
According to Pew, the number one way voters use the internet is to search for candidate information. Ergo, it makes sense to try and embed hyperlinks of telling McCain articles across the internet in order to raise their Google ranking. So here we go:
1--McCain: US economic woes 'psychological'
2--McCain housing policy shaped by lobbyist
3--Bush, McCain plug Social Security
4--McCain blasts Obama's and Clinton's attacks on NAFTA
5--McCain in NH: Would Be "Fine" To Keep Troops in Iraq for "A Hundred Years"
6--McCain: Bush right to veto kids health insurance expansion
7--Senate passes expanded GI bill despite Bush, McCain opposition
8--McCain says overturn the law that legalized abortion
9--McCain Defends Bush's Iraq Strategy
There you have it. You can blogroll them, put them in your sig, add them in comments, or link one every time you use McCain's name. Or his "huggy bear" image.
After the Malkin project, Bowers got lots of death threats. He now estimates that this project could cost McCain 1% of the vote, so if you see a fleet of V-22s circling Open Left, you'll know his payload hit the mark.

If this is the number one way voters find info, shouldn’t we simultaneously wage a positive googlebomb campaign for Obama?
Thank you SOOOO much dakine! sorry to be such a woose on that. i appreciate you and totally DUGG this. other’s, do the same! This one is really important to get out there!
Speaking of bombs, there’s going to more on the way for John: An international agreeement was just struck to ban the use of cluster bombs.
The Cluster Bomb Munitions Treaty was just passed by over 100 nations, despite secret threats by the Bush Administration to withhold aid to all prospective signers.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/7423714.stm
Senator Feinstein trie to pass a similar bill in the Senate after Israel dumped over 4 million of the toylike cluster bomblets over all of Lebanan in the war of 2006. But the bill was defeated when Hillary Clinton, Joe Lieberman and a few other Dems crossed party lines to vote with all of the Republicans, including John McCain.
Obama supported Feinstein and the majority of Democrats.
But get this:
only China, Russia, Israel and the United States refused to participate, with Israel going even further to claim “their” use was legal and justified, despite the US claims that their use was illegal since the weapons were US made.
Yep we need more war mongers in DC like we need more rules written by war mongers.
Would someone direct a google illiterate to the right way to do the google bomb? Do you type “John McCain,” and then what? please.
chris bowers explains everything
(bows) Konnichiwa, Wobbs. Intertoobz spells it differently than I always did so I’ll go with Ted’sToobz.
I’ve always paid attention to my instincts and the last few days I think are telling me something. Democracy Now! devoted over 30 minutes to Tariq Ali today and I thought the timing was prescient. And well worth watching.
Things are not going well for the GZG, Scotty is on all the bobblehead shows, his book is out, the media are in a frenzy one way or the other, the WH appears to be in a daze (yeah, I know, what’s new), venues for McCain’s fundraisers are bailing, etc, etc. The hole under their rock is in disarray and they’re turning on their own.
And now Lady Jane’s post re googlebombing. No time like the present to start an all out assault on the Rethugs. The Rethugs have accumulated power by any means they could over the last 30 years. They’ve turned the world into a living nightmare with their quest for wealth and power and inability to govern. It’s time to take it away from them, non-violently, By. Any. Means. Necessary. We have the ability to make life a living hell for the Rethugs and their sycophants this summer and fall. Got a Dem challenging a Rethug in a Senate or House race where you live this year? We can expand the McCain googlebomb to the down ticket races. We can hammer ‘em every day until the election. Be creative, think of ways we can use the toobz to our advantage. We’re burnin’ daylight here, let’s get started.

Posted on my blog, ma’am. Apparently I don’t know how to copy embedded links, so went to each one, copy/pasted the address into my post, blah, blah, blah. Dragon and Wobbly, this is gettin’ interesting, as noted.
Ten Things You Need to Know About McCain
Well I for one am shocked! I had no idea McCain did not support a woman’s right to choose.
Did you know McCain’s campaign is run almost entirely by lobbyists?
Even though McCain has enjoyed evil socialized medicine his entire life, he voted against expanding health care for poor kids.
McCain wants to stay in Iraq for a 100 years? Crazy piece - o - crap!
McCain supports the troops so much, he doesn’t want them to have any other options than the military. It is shameful that he was one of the few to vote against education benefits for out troops.
I’m slower than some of the other kids with the bloggy stuff, but I think I figured it out… http://mgpaquin.wordpress.com/ Thanks for the ammo, Jane!
Why I don’t support John McCain, the short list. (Google Bomb Edition)
McCain thinks the economic problems in America is not real, says it’s just a “psychological” problem. McCain’s housing policy was shaped by a lobbyist who was being paid by a foreign government to feed him that very policy! Remember Bush’s plan to
gamble social security on the stock marketprivatize Social Security? Well, McCain is on board and touring with Bush to make that plan a reality. McCain refuses any renegotiation of NAFTA, preferring to put the interests of multinational corporations ahead of the needs of working families. McCain continues to support Bush’s plan in Iraq. Don’t forget McCain’s idea that 100 years in Iraq is “fine” by him. McCain thinks it was right for Bush to veto funding for health insurance for poor children — even though he has always enjoyed government-run health care for himself! McCain even stands with Bush and against 75 out of 100 Senators who voted to update the GI Bill. That is his version of supporting the troops. McCain does not support a womans right to choose, and wants Roe vs Wade overturned!Considering that this is a very partial list, the real question should be how could anyone support this mans ambition to be the President of the United States?
Sorry for the repost, this is the comment I am going to send around as my contribution, and the comment maker is the perfect widget for those of us who don’t do the html thing so well… …now I have the whole thing saved and I’m ready to Google Bomb!
