MY SAY: THE AGE OF POLITICS
Today, a respected columnist referred to Clinton as a “crone” and Sanders as a “museum piece.”
A crone is defined as “an old woman who is thin and ugly.” And a “museum piece” is usually a fossil.
I would not vote for Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders, however, criticizing their age in those terms is a cheap shot. Maybe it cuts close to my bone, but being superannuated is not what I dislike about them. There is enough to tarnish them in policies, biographies, agenda, morality, etc. without stooping to nasty allusions to their age.
