I know he has a spectacular record of voting his party line but I can't bring myself to pull a lever for anyone that is 81 years old and wanting another six years. Obviously anyone doing such must addicted to the power and prestige. They pass laws forcing retirement on many professions they need one on themselves IMHO. I say 72yo and you can't run again, but what do I know.

There is a young marine named McConnell running against him. Anyone have knowledge or opinion on the young man? I've only seen TV commercials and haven't done any research on him yet but being a Vet gives him a large headstart to me.
