Amateurish beyond belief.

On its very first day online, the Barack Obama “Fight the Smears” web site has been pwned.

UPDATE at 6/12/08 2:01:50 pm:

I didn’t notice that the address of this site is FightTheSmears.ORG, not .COM … this is a parody site. But it’s no less amateurish — because what happened is that the Obama campaign’s web people forgot to register the .org domain. Another beginner’s mistake.

UPDATE at 6/12/08 3:56:30 pm:

The link has been removed because it now contains links to porn sites.

"Conducting" is when you draw "designs" in the nowhere -- with your stick, or with your hands -- which are interpreted as "instructional messages" by guys wearing bow ties who wish they were fishing.
