The three blogs mentioned on McCain's web site are: Redstate, Daily Kos and Jeff Emanuel.

Say what you want about McCain but he has a sharp crew working for him when it comes to PR.
The Bush crew could have used them in the past several years.

He knows the conservatives consider him an abomination so he’s trying to peel away the dem moderates.
Pathetic.
To: Dawnsblood
They should be posting here but I guess they figure they have a better chance of getting votes on Dem sites.

That really doesnt make a whole lot of sense... THe hard core political fans wont change their stripes based on some anonymous post.
I would advise going to apolitical places and dump anecdotal items in support of McCain to perhaps sway an undecided. I know everyone hates politics in apolitical places but they have to be done in a way that doesnt out you as some spammer or troller.
I wont be doing any of that though.

“Incentivizing” makes it sounds like he’s bribing them. Looks to me like they are just putting out ways that supporters can help if they want to.

That’s true....he’s got Charlie Black working for him. Black, of course, is legendary for his PR efforts at rehabilitating tyrants and genocidal maniacs like Ferdinand Marcos and Mobutu Seke.

No, he’s bribing them. They get points at his online store.

McCain sucks up to the execrable Daily “Screw Them” Kos...meanwhile, it takes Michelle Malkin multiple attempts to get included in the McCain campaign’s blogger update phone calls. Something is very, very wrong here.

On almost any McCain thread, you will find posters who have signed up only in the last few months, are strong supporters, and do not post on any other threads. I do not expect any of them to be here after the first week in November.

Suggesting that people post messages supporting McCain on DailyKos is laughable. The poster would get banned or heckled to death, and probably both. What’s even sillier is that you can bet your bottom dollar the Kos Kidz probably already know about this “plan” and will be looking out for it!
Sheesh!

And to make things easier, they're including talking points with which sympathizers can use to get out the McCain message.
Sympathizers? LOL! Must be the new buzzword for troll.

It’s pretty pathetic when a candidate has to reward people for saying nice things about him.
