Quote of the Day
“I’m not looking to discriminate against someone just because of age, but I do feel that there’s a point in time in one’s life that I can speak to now in terms of effectiveness...Unfortunately there’s a physiological reality. And there are very few people that are incredibly active, which is what politics requires.”
The Globe interviewed 15 Massachusetts voters who are 80 or will be in their 80s over the next six years. Nearly all expressed reservations about sending someone close to their age to Washington until 2033.
