Vote for the MILF

No, this is not an appeal to urge you to vote for McCain/Palin.

Although you should.

Rather, it's about the Website VoteForTheMILF.com, which some said was a domain owned by JohnMcCain.com.

It wasn't. And isn't. Owned by the McCain campaign, that is.

For the uninitiated, a "MILF" is a term popularized by the movie, American Pie. It means, "mom I'd like to ..." well, go here if you really must know ... but I suspect you get it by now.

Anyway, GovGap.com claims that the McCain campaign owns the domain name.

Got pictures, screenshots, and everything.

And plenty of left-wingers jumped all over it.

The Washington Post, Crooks and Liars, FireDogLake, and others.

Of course, they're wrong.

The whole thing was a prank. Rial F. Sloan of Chattanooga, who runs n00tz.com, confesses all.

Personally, I thought it was hilarious.

If the McCain camp had registered it, I think it would have been a good move; they'd have kept it out of the hands of evil-doers. You know. Democrats.

But the McCain camp didn't do it. Some geeky guy in Chattanooga did it.

And the left fell for it. Hook. Line. Sinker.

Silly hippies.
