I wonder how many SERP's will be modified in this way. I guess Google and
politics don't mix too well.

It sure makes everyone happy. Who do you reckon will choose to remove Mr.
George Bush from the SERP's? A passionate Republicans? Who will then be the

3. Tailor content to users (i.e. give users what they want)
4. Profit!
