Why are there Sue Myrick ads all over the front page??

Does anyone else see this or is it just me?? WTF?

1. i don't see any ads so i don't know what you are talking about.

2. When I load the main page, I get a link to her site at the top of the page

and a big red ad right in the middle.

5. They are auto-generated Google ads

They appear based on keywords. If people mention innocuous terms such as "congress" or "election", the ads will show up. DU cannot remove them beforehand because they are not mind readers. If you see ads that you feel do not belong here, then please inform the administrators:

3. ignore them or donate to DU

a token donation makes all the ads go away.

4. Let them support us.

It ain't changing our minds.

6. Tracking cookies enable ads to be tailored towards their audiences

In other words, ads you receive follow your personal tastes. Therefore...

11. Funny, I don't get McCain ads--and I donate and haven't turned ads off.

Odd, isn't it?

7. I'm getting Palin, Burr, Miller from Alaska

some local judge candidate in NC banners and have for the last two weeks. I've seen Elaine Marshall's ad come up maybe five times.

Click those Thug-lican banners by the way. They have to pay for some or all of the clicks.
