Earn bonus points, prizes with McCain
The Minneapolis Star-Tribune ^ | 2008-08-07

Posted on 08/07/2008 7:33:25 PM PDT by rabscuttle385

Spread John McCain's official talking points around the Web -- and you could win prizes! That, in essence, is the McCain campaign's pitch to supporters to join its new online effort.

At www.johnmccain.com, visitors are invited to "Spread the Word" by sending supplied comments -- such as "John McCain has a comprehensive economic plan" -- to websites. Just cut and paste. People receive points each time they place a favorable comment on one of the listed websites (subject to verification). The points can be traded for prizes, such as preferred seating at campaign events and even a ride with McCain on his Straight Talk Express bus, spokesman Brian Rogers said.

We’ve known about it for a while now. It explains at least some of the frenzied thumbsuckers.

The best thing about McCain is that he is not Obama, which will be the #1 reason people vote for him.

even a ride with McCain on his Straight Talk Express bus

And, as a super-duper bonus, if you say something conservative you'll get a free one-way ticket UNDER the Straight Talk Express!

They don’t even have any shame about it. They call it astro-turfing. Fake grassroots.

Pathetic.

McCain rocks! He’s the best!

Is that count as 2 or just 1 nice thing?

I wonder how much they’re getting for “I know McCain sucks but he’s better than Obama.”

OK, here goes: McCain’s brilliant ad people are getting so good I can almost think about voting for McCain without gagging. Almost. Just threw up a little in my mouth writing that sentence though.

Can I have my points now?

The campaign still appear to be solvent, so my guess would be nothing. :)
