Ok, so this probably falls into the category of dirty pool, but… it IS pretty ingenious 
Saw this on Reddit today:
What an innovative use of technology! Now, I’m not encouraging this or anything… but if you may happen to feel that Giuliani is a sleazebag… and you might happen to have a few spare minutes… and you think he might have received a little too much in the way of corporate money…. well, you might want to reconsider, perhaps, this great man and beacon of liberty… by checking out Rudy’s site a few dozen times, using his handy Google ads. I guess that’s ONE way to arrive at campaign finance reform!
This also illustrates the chasm between the Old Media’s understanding of the way the Internet works and the way it actually does work. They think it works like television, where you can just throw money at it and people will soak it in like zombies. The way it REALLY works, however, is virally–that is, people tell other people about candidates, and candidates with good ideas float to the top. It’s really a good way to separate the wheat from the chaff, actually.
Viva la Internet!
