Settling the “Age” thing…

In his quite funny latest HBO special, Chris Rock had this one-liner:

“John McCain is 72… When was the last time you hired a 72-year old for ANYTHING?!!”

Now, to be fair, John McCain has proven his toughness and even poked a little self-deprecating fun at himself on SNL several months ago claiming on the show that he had the “oldness” neccessary to be President…

Yet the question continues to be posed to me in private by people… Some as recent as yesterday, asking about the senator’s age as a factor in this election…

Well today, I saw this…

Ken Mink is a 73 year-old retiree, full-time college student and member of the Roane State Community College who’s still got game!
