Election 2008

If you'd led John McCain's life, you'd look older than 71, too

John McCain's surge is working. With significant primary victories in delegate-heavy states, the Arizona senator firmly cemented his lead as the GOP presidential frontrunner, dealing a serious blow to Mitt Romney's candidacy. That's right, Romney, where's your magic underwear now?

With McCain comfortably ahead and presumably headed for the nomination, voters will need to take a long hard look at the possibility of this man sitting in the White House. And what voters will see is: this dude is old. Will the fact that McCain looks every one of his 71 years influence voters come Election Day? Or will conservatives recognize that every wrinkle on John McCain's face is there for a reason, and none of them involve a lack of sunscreen?

Examine 23/6's map of John McCain's face for the full explanation.
