Voters want to LIKE their candidate for President. ... people think (as did I) that Fred is past his prime, and would not be able to handle the rigors of the Presidency.

McCain is older, 6 long years, and a whole lot less likeable as well. Romney is about 5 years younger than Thompson, while Huckabee is a realive baby born 8 years after Romney. (making him almost 6 years younger than me).

Romney is about 5 years younger than Thompson...

Regardless of their biological age, Mitt Romney looks years younger than his age.

Romney is in excellent shape. He looks fit, trim, well rested, and it doesn't hurt that he is handsome and has a head full of hair.

Huckabee looks frumpy. His suits don't fit. He has that jowled look when he talks, like his his cheeks are flapping like a cartoon character hounddog. (not trying to be petty, just saying what I see.

Yes, Fred has lost some weight, but ironically, that makes him look haggard and skeletal. Fred has huge bags under his eyes, and his lack of hair makes him look older than his true age.

McCain has that lymph node bulging thing, which he had removed recently.

But have you noticed lately how McCain's left eye is squeezing shut ever so slowly.

McCain has had skin cancer removed frequently, I think.

Guiliani just looks like a prison camp guard from a WWII movie.

Which leaves Romney. Some people say he looks plastic. I think he looks a little stiff sometimes, but damn -- for 60 the man is in excellent shape.

Romney looks 10-15 years younger.

I must be a bad judge of age. I thought it would be the reverse.
