I was in the process of adding links of potential 2010 candidates on my links page. I was entering the 3rd district congressional candidates. Not knowing the actual addresses, I’d try a few, then use google to find them. As I entered “www.shanemassey.com” to see if that was the address to Shane’s page I discovered something interesting.
When you enter http://www.shanemassey.com in your browser you are forwarded to another Republican candidate for congress, Rex Rice. When you do a “who is” for shanemassey.com you find this:
| Current Registrar: | GODADDY.COM, INC. | ||
| IP Address: | 64.202.189.170 (ARIN & RIPE IP search) | ||

Shane doesn’t know who the prankster is (Rex told him he doesn’t either). I guess the owner has blocked the identity.
Update, just got a message from Rex Rice. He’d like for someone to help find a way to reverse this forward…anyone know?
Anyhow, if you’re interested, here are the correct links to the Republican Candidates for SC-3:
This race is loaded with good conservatives, so It’s going to be a great one to watch.
