The Thompson comment is absolutely about his wife. Because you know what America really wants is a First Lady with a Grandfather fetish.
Grover Cleveland was like 27 years older than his wife. Kucinich is 30 years older than his wife. Fred is 25 years older than his wife. So... what's your point?
Cleveland was already president when his wife married him.
And did he suddenly become incapable of performing the duties as President because he had a wife so many years younger than him? Did the crowds tar and feather him because he didn't marry someone in their 40s or 50s? Now I doubt that Wakie actually believes that large aged differences between consenting adults is really a big political issue, but I'm sure there is a micro percentage of the population that does, and it boggles the mind as to why.
No, but I was just pointing out that Cleveland was elected as a bachelor.
