It is not so much that he is old, but he lacks vigor. He reads from notes more than he used to and has difficulty maintaining as active of a schedule as his opponents. I hate that he's losing the "tough guy" vote to Rudy, when I agree that he is a much better leader. If you want someone who is genuine, who is just loved by everyone who meets him, keep your eye on Huckabee. This might not be his time, but in a few years, watch out! He might make an interesting VP pick for someone this time around. Sadly, McCain missed his moment. It is not so much that he is old, but he lacks vigor.
