I can come up with several answers, but there is no good answer to this question.

I’m sorry but how can any rational person believe that a 91 year old man is the person best equipped to watch out for the interests of the constituents?

What does it say about the House of Representatives that the man recently given the job of chairman of the Space, Science, and Technology Committee is so old that he once pumped gas for Bonnie and Clyde?
