McCreepy Totally Weirds Out
ADULT CONTENT, sort of. OK, don't read further if you're squeamish about the seamier side of the Internet.
First, this is a bit of a geeky inside-baseball Internet issue. Let me explain. If you're going to set up a website the first thing you usually do is think of a name for it and secure the domain name on the Internet. Pets.com, for example.
Um, it seems clear the McCain campaign owns the URL: VoteForTheMILF.com
Eww! And I mean EWW!
Read the following story and I think you'll all agree. Now, since this first appeared on the Intertubes this story has been picked up by The NY Times and The Washington Post and, natch, denied by the McCreepy campaign. Also, the redirects mentioned herein have since been disabled. Helps with the coverup but it's likely too late. We'll see if this story has legs.
John McCain Owns VoteForTheMILF.com
"Visit VoteForTheMILF.com and you will be redirected specifically to a video intro by Gov. Sarah Palin at JohnMcCain.com if you are hitting it for the first time. Note that the redirect sends you first to JohnMcCain.com and THEN to Palin.htm (Palin’s Video Intro) if you’re visiting for the first time, or if your cookies are cleared, or if you’re not accepting cookies. Here’s a video of this taking place:"
(video follows)
Geeky Internet route tracing here:
- URL Registered within hours of McCain’s Decision to select Palin as running mate
- Redirect sends users specifically to a palin.htm file, but only on the FIRST redirect
- Whois Privacy Information Matches JohnMcCain.com Whois Privacy
- URL Held by same registrar- Note that the .net and .org versions also redirect to the McCain Campaign Website.
Bingo! Smoking Gun found!
Network Tools.com Trace Route:
- 64.203.107.149 (VoteForTheMILF.com)
