I have almost no control over the ads you see at the top of the page. Yes, I signed up for the program, called Google Adsense, and on a good day, what I and JerseyJim and Foot It guy Tim and Straphanger Joe blog about influences what ads appear. (The great Google god above reads the post, chuckles at our unfailing wit, then decides which from His giant trove of advertisers would have the best chance of selling the reader something based on the content.)

Well, moments after we posted something on pedicabs at the conventions, an ad from John McCain–specifically, JohnMcCain.com–popped up. It shows Sen. Odrama…er, Obama… in a host of different God-like poses, includes people saying God-like things about him, and repeatedly shows Charlton Heston as Moses.

Then, at the end, it declares that Sen. Obama is not fit to run the country, despite being like God and all.

It’s funny how the mainstream media struggles so hard to get the candidates to cough up dough on the Web, while dopey sites such as this luck into such ads. (I know, it cost Camp McCain all of about 4 cents to advertise on Trainjotting.)

So thanks, John. And, ya know, good luck in November and all, I guess.
