The Bush Loses Campaign Experiment.
Posit: That Google can act as a proxy for the mass-mind; that a given number of hits on Google can act as a meter for determining the popularity of any given idea.
Posit: That by increasing the number of links to a particular phrase, or even the presence of a particular phrase on the web, one can alter the Google ranking given a particular idea.
Posit: That the internet (and Google specifically) has a positive feedback relationship with public consciousness; that as ideas rise in their ranking on popular search engines, they will also grow in popularity out in the real world, just as political polls not only measure public opinion but also lead public opinion. Winners tend to win; losers tend to lose.
Posit: The current president of the United States is a loser.
Thus, the project:
Bush loses fight with space-age scooter
Bush loses wargame against Iran.
Bush loses debate against a stem cell.
Bush loses key aide on Latin America
Bush loses his dignity (worth checking out the unlinkable image).
Bush loses the will to see justice done, or possibly Bush just loses the door to Karl Rove's office
Bush Loses by a Landslide in Global Opinion Poll
Bush loses advantage in war on terrorism
Bush loses closest political aide
Bush loses his aura of invincibility
Bush loses poll (and, it appears, a yo-yo)
Bush loses ability to crush democratically elected central American governments
Bush loses advantage in War on Terrorism
I guess I do lose.
Shucks.
Cut me a little slack here.

I'm the owner of the domain name www.bushloses.com, and since I checked my logs this morning on my site www.antibushtshirt.com to which I had re-directed bushloses.com, I traced some hits back to this page and then to your campaign.
As a Canadian who strongly supports his American cousins who support anyone but Bush, I'm happy to re-direct www.bushloses.com to your new Bush Loses blog.
Best Wishes
