Don't Mess With The SUB!



In Albuquerque, John McCain used an appearance in the ballroom at the University of New Mexico's Student Union Building to slander Barack Obama.

The Student Union Building, aka the "SUB", is a very familiar place. As Vice-President of UNM's Ballroom Dance Club, I spent many happy days in the late 70's quarreling with the authorities over scheduling that same ballroom for our dances. Sometimes it seemed to me that the SUB authorities saw us more as parasites than as the precious vessels for America's future that we unarguably were.

Well, I have news for John McCain, and his slander campaign at the SUB. I tried slander too, but it didn't work. We still had to vacate the ballroom promptly at 10:00 p.m., no matter what.

The odds of slander working now, for McCain, are similarly nil. If McCain doesn't have a positive program to bring to America's voters, the SUB authorities are going to bite his ass off.
