Cindy McCain — ‘Preserved in aspic’

That’s the best line yet about Cindy McCain.

I call women like that “claymation women” myself, from the amount of makeup they slather on.

Let's say, for the sake of argument, that Mitchell is right, on Hardball, then the reason he's "out of it" is most likely the age issue.

Now, unlike McCain raising issues directly against Obama, which Joe Klein noted was strategically stupid, Obama (should he raise this issue) would surely have the brains to do it through surrogates.

Question is.... since oldsters have a high voter turnout AND since Florida is a big swing state... do you raise it? If so, how gingerly?
