Thats a fair argument about obvious differences between them. Do you think if it was Teddy Kennedy running againt some young republican the dems would be ranting and raving about agism.

I would be concern......as it turns out for good reason too.

I think one of the real appeals to many is his youth, however misplaced that may be. I firmly believe that the Left -- certainly the extreme, as represented here -- is totally motivated by the possibility of a win in November. Thus, you're right -- were it Teddy running, age would not be an issue.
