"I will not exploit, for political purposes, my opponent's youth and inexperience."

So said Ronald Reagan in one of his debates with Walter Mondale, to defuse the issue of his age (he was then 73).

I take some of Senator Clinton's comments about her experience, and by implication about Senator Obama's lack of experience, to suggest that in her view perhaps Senator Obama is too young to be President.  He is 46 and she is 60.

On Inauguration Day 2009, Senator Obama will be 47 years, 5 months, and 16 days old, which is 1 year and 15 days older than President Clinton was on January 20, 1993 when he started his first term.
