They did this for McCains campaign also I believe. It all equates to nothing as one time public playing of a recording amounts to nearly nothing in royalties, and nobody magically decided they were/weren't voting for a candidate based on hearing Foo Fighters in the background.

As a sidenote, the Foo Fighters have probably 30+ songs that are better than "My Hero" so why is that one played so damn much?
