Reminder

John McCain is old. That's worth repeating. But being old doesn't disqualify him from being President of the United States (POTUS, in net speak). But his age has brought with it an increasing lack of mental clarity and coherence, I think. Or maybe the spotlight of the campaign has just highlighted a lack of coherence and mental clarity that has always existed.

I applaud his military service, but Republicans themselves made the argument four years ago that policy positions are more important that actual military service. So I think we can take that whole war hero thing off the table.
