I discussed this with a friend who teaches Political Science at the local Community College and it was his theory that this was likely done on purpose by his "people" because an older man (though not as old as McCain) projects confidence, experience, and it's harder for some voters to vote for someone that looks as young as they do. He insists that Clinton did the same thing when he was first running for office b/c of his age.
Me personally? I think my friend has a valid point but I also think that the stress of taking on such a massive job like running for office takes its toll.
