As collateral for a $3 million loan for his presidential campaign, John McCain had to take out a special life insurance policy. The policy was specifically predicated on him not surviving this year’s campaign.
Given that McCain is seeking to replace Ronald Reagan in the record books as the oldest person first elected to the presidency, this leaves the age issue open to attack, as has McCain’s comment a couple of weeks ago to consider serving only one term.
So far, though, Mitt Romney hasn’t touched this issue in the primaries, though.
However, especially if Hillary Clinton gets the Democratic nod, this issue will get raised in the fall campaign.
