I'd like to add that Google has a major spam problem, their index is getting crush by political spam, and keywords like Obama and McCain are getting blocked to slow down the bad stuff. As much as an anti-Obama guy I am, I have to side with the bigger problem on the Internet, which is keyword/keyterm/paid search spam, and splogs. Its crazy.
