he called it "USC, the University of Spoiled Children." It's not an original joke, of course -- it's been around for ages, possibly even as long as John McCain himself -- but it said a lot about the man who wants to be president. Jesse Jackson (D) talks about cutting off Obama's manhood for selling out and THIS is the day LATe's daily talking point?

I thought for a second and replied, “Why, yes, Butch... you should definitely tell your fiance that you went to USC”. LOL

Nah — USC is detested by many — and even some alumni
good-naturedly accept the criticisms as they suspect much of the naysaying is rooted in jealousy.
No big deal here — and McCain’s comments will certainly please UCLA fans. Might even win him some votes here in CA.
To: TomGuy
McCain probably alienated himself from every USC alumni. With that old cliche? Like the writer of this piece, I'm sure they've all heard it before.
I think Ann Coulter's idea to start the grassroots movement Get Drunk and Vote for McCain is the best shot McCain has at capturing any of the college vote.
To: HIDEK6
Like he has a chance in California. The odds are long but I'm an optimist. If I can just get this Get Drunk and Vote 4 McCain thing to take off....people in California do like to party.

I went to USC and worked my ass off to get good grades. We didn’t have computers or high-speed internet or IM or music downloads. I studied hard and got good grades. McCain trying to be a smartass, just sounding like a dumbass.
To: PugetSoundSoldier
I first heard the moniker University of Spoiled Children from a USC alum; he earned his BS and MS from the school... Yep. Earned my Masters there. Great school. Lotsa spoiled children, too. It's a very common joke there.

Anyone can buy a shingle.
I went to the public school in Westwood.
I earned mine.
