Some jokers who don't like the Democratic presidential candidate are trying to make his campaign Web site, johnkerry.com, the first answer to a search of the word "waffles" on Google, the No. 1 Internet search engine.
They've nearly succeeded on the No. 2 search engine, Yahoo. By Sunday, eight days after the prank began, johnkerry.com was listed second among 703,000 results of a Yahoo search of the word "waffles."
At the No. 3 search engine, MSN Search, johnkerry.com was also the second Web page result of a search Sunday for "waffles."
On Google, johnkerry.com was not in the top 1,000 of the 556,000 results of a search for "waffles."
Authorities on search engines say the joke's quick impact on Yahoo and MSN, though, is a sign that the campaign is working and that Google will be affected soon.

Some jokers... Where was the author's outrage when pranksters tried to link a search for Bush under "miserable failure?"

We can only excerpt USA Today articles. If you read the rest of the article the author of the article does talk about the "Bush miserable failure" prank also.

My first response to your post was that it needed to be slowed down. Then I remembered him switching positions in one sentence and I figured you got it right.
See...anyone can waffle. It's easy. Try it, you'll like it!
