What does that make John McCain???

The Hill asked all 97 of the Senators not running for President whether they'd accept an offer to be his/her party's Vice Presidential nominee.

Three Republicans gave very interesting reponses...

Sen. Thad Cochran (R-Miss.)
"When I was much younger I would have probably said, ‘Sure, I’ll be glad to accept it,’ but I’m 70 years [old] and they need a younger person for the job. I would probably tell them, ‘Look for somebody else.’"

Sen. Pete Domenici (R-N.M.)
"No. I’m too old."

Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa)
"I’m too old to be vice president. But I am young enough to be reelected to the Senate."

To review: Cochran is 70 years old, Domenici is 76, and Grassley is 74.

On January 20th, 2009, John McCain will be 72 years old...
