Is anybody else being targeted by the McAuliffe campaign?

I swear every website I go to has a pro-McAuliffe ad on it - and most of them have been pro-gun and/or conservative sites. Anybody else having this problem? I'm half-way wondering if a pro-McAuliffe local politician I'm on speaking terms with has somehow tagged me for a blitz.

I'm not just seeing this online, but also have seen a lot of McAuliffe ads on my Hulu Plus subscription. I think the guy just has a huge bucket of advertising dollars and is spending it everywhere that he can.
Ads that you see online are displayed by the ad manager (in many cases, Google) based on the amount that an an advertiser bids on the ad spot (Cost Per Click). Google is able to geo-target these ads based on IP address location, so that the ads spend by McAuliffe is highly targeted to website visits from a Virginia IP address.
So, I don't think you are specifically being targeted. We're all in the same boat.

Well, if we are all in the same boat, McAuliffe is getting an unimaginable amount of ad saturation right now. Of course, in my case, it is counterproductive because all it is doing is pissing me off.

Bloomberg, MAIG, SEIU, AFL-CIO and all their associated cronies are dumping millions in Virginia for advertising campaigns. Expect this to increase as we approach the end of October.
This is what it's like trying to fight a candidate with unlimited funding.

Pay $3.99 monthly to get Pandora One and never look at another ad again! (well, not on Pandora, anyway)

Google and others are pretty good at filtering repeat clicks from the same location

I see his serpentine visage everywhere; online, Hulu, and Pandora. Even if I liked the guy attempting to buy an election outright irks the sht out of me.

I'm not so much getting targeted ads from McAzzhat but every other day getting mail from Reed Huddleston, D-imwit for Delegate.
I'm about to puke how much this veteran has sold his soul to the Dems. He's constantly using his past military service, even using pics of him in uniform to gain supporters.

About the only thing McAuliffe hasn't been advertising is on my iPod.

I think its a good idea to help him spend his money. Click it. Do it at different times. Bring in the $$ for business.

I just saw a McA ad. I was flipping through the channels as I sit down here in Chesapeake waiting for this supposedly hot load to land in my truck. (Been here since 9am... almost 2pm now...)
Funny thing.... the ad was intended as a smear on KC, but all the ad did was make KC look good to me.

Didn't you know?
If you're not passing out birth control pills in the elementary schoolyard, you're repressing a woman's right to healthcare!
Hope women know McAwefull left his wife as she was giving birth to their child for a Democrap fundraiser and then left her in the back of his car weeping with the newborn infant on the way home from the hospital while he bent elbows again soliciting for the Clintons.
Guess he figures the "war on women" is personal and should be fought in the home.
