The more they say crap like this and the more they make fun of McCain’s age, the more I think its going to hurt them in the end. By accusing McCain of being irrelevant due to his age, by extension, they’re accusing *anyone* at or near his age of being irrelevant.

Not a good campaign strategy. Its downright idiotic when you consider that seniors usually vote Dem because the Dems play the fear-mongering card and scare them on social security. They’re alienating a fairly reliable part of their own base.

Then again, its not surprising. He’s anything but the Hope, Change and Unity candidate he’s portraying himself as.

Democrats don’t care about old people, just their votes.

Surgeon General Joycelyn Elders said that old people are gonnna die anyway and that we need to focus health care on the young people that are going to cover he Social Security.

I agree! When a major part of the electorate is over the age of 65, it is a grave mistake to show them how intolerant you are of the sin of age! BO already has a major problem with support of those over the age of 40, why make it worse?
