Predict the upcoming ads on DU
In case you missed the "Should DU have ads or not" discussion, here it is:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=364&topic_id=1273778&mesg_id=1273778

I challenge you to predict the ads targeted at DU readers.

I'm guessing...

1. You know what ads I want to see?
Campaign ads for Republicans. Hundreds of them. Everywhere, on every page and on every thread. It would be a big waste of money for the Republicans, but a windfall for DU. Sweet irony, don't you think?

18. I don't like this at all!
I've been using adsense on Randi's board and mine for 2 years. The ads are NOT targeted that well. I still get probush ads all the time.
