    I don’t hate him, but he’s already 60. That means that if Harris goes 1 term and loses, or goes 2 terms and can’t run again, Kelly is 68 before he can run himself, which he will inevitably do. If he’s 68 when he starts, then he is running the country in his 70s and we have made 0 progress on this age problem that seems to plague presidential candidates. Beshear is 46, which keeps him in his 50s for most of his terms.

      People around here seem to love old farts despite bitching about how tired they are of old farts running the country.

      Ironic.
