    Well I gave their current ages. They were 20 years younger when elected.

    62 isn’t spring chicken, but it isn’t Feinstein zombie old.

    40ish is definitely a good age to be voted in and prove yourself talented enough to lead for another 20-30 years.

      You straight up called 58 young, and said they’re young and the age you want. “McCarthy is only 53. (…) He is pretty young”.

      I’d rather judge candidates in their abilities and policies than on their age. Regardless of their age, these politicians are unpalatable.

        You totally rephrased my comment wtf.

        I mean Paul Ryan is only 53 now and was elected to office when he was 29. He is pretty young. McCarthy is only 58. Eric Cantor is the oldest at 62.

        Definitely young and around the age you want leaders to be.

        I was talking about Paul Ryan, who has been out of office for years. 58 isn’t ancient either.

        The entire comment string was about how these three were “greying” in the photo. Nobody mentioned policy or abilities to me. Don’t forget, Paul Ryan quit because he knew how the party was going to turn out. Seems like a good man to me.
