votefortheMILF.com website owned by McCain campaign yikes!
Edited on Mon Sep-29-08 12:41 PM by medeak
Guess Who Owns VoteFortheMILF.Com?
AS WHOLESOME AS AN AMERICAN PIE REFERENCE

Let's try a fun little game: Type in "Vote For the MILF" into your browser and see what pops up:
John McCain and his ad team are more internet-savvy than they originally let on — the campaign registered the domain name that translates into "vote for the mother I'd like to fuck" approximately 36 hours after McCain’s selection of Palin as running mate. Typing in the URL will redirect you to JohnMcCain.com, which probably was just the campaign's way of buying out the domain before any smart alec kid got a hold of it. Still, they would have been better off leaving the site blank, instead of drawing attention to the fact that John McCain thinks Palin is fuckable.

Edit: Never mind they used to own it-it now routes to some conservative bloggers page.

5. crap, anyone can buy a domain that is available and point it
anywhere they want.

I own the site www.runbutcanthide.com and could just point it to johnmccain.com. That does NOT mean that mccain camp did it.

this is bullshit.

18. Hi, yah, they are using domainsbyproxy to stop anyone
from seeing who has actually registered the domain.

the website info on johnmccain.com is there just because that is where it is pointing.

11. loved this part LOL
It’s impossible to know if this is an intentional or unintentional error on the part of the McCain Campaign, but it wouldn’t be at all surprising. Seems they’re just learning to use the “internet/the google” to promote their candidate (as in: accidentally releasing ‘McCain Wins Debate’ ads 14 hours before First Presidential Debate and 4 Hours before McCain decided he was going to debate after all.):

15. Gaah!
Domainsbyproxy is GoDaddy's privacy service.

The domain johnmccain.com has had private registration off and on for years. My personal belief is that it was originally purchased by a domain name squatter and they lease it out to McSame whenever he is running for office.

There is no proof that this milf domain is owned by the RNC. Someone is pointing the domain to the McSame site. That is all.

Google hotlesbiansheepaction.com. That domain name owner points it to different sites until they block him via htaccess. Recently Focus on the Family finally got wise and now the domain is in limbo.

19. I have doubts...
And that is so offensive. I can't imagine the McCain people would be that stupid. I don't credit them much but this is something I'm assuming is manufactured to look like the McCain camp owns it.
