      John McCain's MySpace Page "Pranked"

Several readers let us know about a little problem with presidential 
hopeful John McCain's MySpace page <http://www.myspace.com/johnmccain>. 
Looks as though some staffer didn't read the fine print of the "credit" 
clause when selecting a template for the page. The template author and 
CEO of Newsvine <http://www.newsvine.com/>, Mike Davidson, noticed this 
and didn't care too much. But the McCain page was pulling an image from 
Davidson's site, costing him bandwidth every time someone visited the 
candidate's MySpace page. So Davidson changed the image in question to 
read: "Today I announce that I have reversed my position and come out in 
full support of gay marriage... particularly marriage between two 
passionate females." Here is Davidson's account of the "immaculate hack"
