I'm having a naughty thought...

No, not that kind. I know why you clicked on this!

Anyway, I was just reading through Jason Linkin's live blogging of last night's events and had my attention called to something. McCain's new ripped off slogan "A leader we can believe in" manages to bring up BarackObama.com as the number 4 item on the search results list if you google it, as a result of his co-opting half of Obama's text.

It sure would be amusing if steps were taken to make it number 1...

10. Didn't google fix it that, when you search for "miserable failure",

Bush would no longer occupy the #1 hit place?

13. that apparently was the one which caused them to "fix" the problem ...

as opposed to any other "google-bombs" which were occurring long before ...

Would you believe a laser in my pen?
