From dailykos, which I heard about from somenotes:

The following list of Republican candidates and links to their dirty business is part of a campaign of Google bombing, which the Republicans used to great success against John Kerry. The idea is that by posting this stuff, Google searches on the Republican candidates' names are more likely to turn up links to articles on controversies and other bad deeds they've committed. (For example, if you search for Virginia's own George Allen, you're more likely to get the article on some of his racist adventures.)

Is this fighting dirty? Yeah, probably so. But the other side's doing it, and information never hurt anybody.

If you'd like to participate, just click on that dailykos link above. Have fun!
