Ronald Reagan was 69 when he was elected to his first term as President. If Enzi is too old then what did that make the Gipper?

Reagan started his political career at 55. He was not a lifer. He served 8 years as governor then took a break and ran for president, lost and took a break and served for eight years. And Reagan was actually a very young 69.

Enzi has been in the senate for 18 straight years now. Don’t know what he did before. So while he’s correct that he’s not too old to serve, he’s too long in the tooth for government. Time to go.
