CNN compares and contrasts Tina Fey lampooning Sarah Palin, to Sarah Palin. Damn, that's spooky.

Jack Cafferty plays a longer version of the Katie Couric interview and asks if Sarah Palin is qualified to be president, but anyone who watched the presidential debate saw this same buzzword-without-thought technique played out by John McCain![[Wiki]](/adbanners/lookingglass.png){kind=small}
. It astounds me that the question is being asked only about Sarah Palin.

McCain tried to make a case that he's your man if you are a vet. What about everyone else, though?

Okay, so we know that http://www.voteforthemilf.com/ redirects to http://www.johnmccain.com/ , and the person who set that up is maybe a little bit embarassed about the... well... crassness of the domain name so they use an anonymizing registrar. Nothing wrong with that, I understand that people who are embarassed about topics they want to put online often hide their identities, but I wonder if we can learn anything about who that up there. Let's dig a little deeper:
danlyke@danhplaptop:~$ host voteforthemilf.com
voteforthemilf.com has address 64.203.107.149
Nothing terribly revealing there, but on a hunch, let's try something:
danlyke@danhplaptop:~$ host johnmccain.com
johnmccain.com has address 64.203.107.149
Oh, looky there! They're embarassed about it, but not so much that they don't host it on the same server...
