From the article:

"You might be thinking, "What's in it for me?" As a matter of fact, for every comment the McCain verifies, you will awarded McCain Action Center. Which is important, because in Fantasy Land 2013, those things will replace the dollar as American currency."

Great! There goes the Interwebs! Lets clog up all those tubes, shall we!
