Here is a defination from wikipedia,
Wikipedia's definaton of Google Bomb:
A Google bomb (also referred to as a 'link bomb') is Internet slang for a certain kind of attempt to influence the ranking of a given page in results returned by the Google search engine, often with humorous or political intentions.Because of the way that Google's algorithm works, a page will be ranked higher if the sites that link to that page use consistent anchor text. A Google bomb is created if many sites link to the page in this manner.
GoogleWebmasterCentral's take on the link bombing : (Last updated January 25, 2007 at 4:16 PM)
Unless you read all about search engines all day, you might wonder "What is a Googlebomb?" Technically, a "Googlebomb" (sometimes called a "linkbomb" since they're not specific to Google) refers to a prank where people attempt to cause someone else's site to rank for an obscure or meaningless query. Googlebombs very rarely happen for common queries, because the lack of any relevant results for that phrase is part of why a Googlebomb can work. One of the earliest Googlebombs was for the phrase "talentless hack," for example.
Previously it was quite easy to target anyone with a lot of links pointing to a person/theme/target aim.
For many years, this happened. Then Google took ( apparently) the action to dispose the Google bombs.
example: If anyone would have searched for "miserable failure" ( without quotes) in google search box, the first result you might have got that time is of the White House for George Bush.
Now Google has fixed the issue and no result is coming for the query.
Everything seems ok ---
Now check this out, just type "who is a failure?" ( without quotes) in the search box (google.com), you will be amazed to see what you will get....
Believe me this is a snap I got...
