Things younger than Republican Presidential candidate (oh, and did I forget to mention war hero?) John McCain

Am I being “age-ist”? Maybe. But maybe not. The world is a pretty complicated place right now and I’m thinking that it’s not such a great time to elect our oldest President ever. So sue me.

The Flamingo Hotel in Vegas.

The Flamingo Hotel in Vegas is younger than John McCain.

While the “El Rancho Vegas” and the “Pair-O-Dice” were the first gambling resorts on or around the Strip, it wasn’t until the development of The Flamingo that the mob came in and things got good. (And they would stay good until 1996, when an otherwise great movie would have every schmoe and his brother running around saying “Vegas, baby, Vegas”.)

    Unless it comes out that he has links to organized crime, McCain’s gambling links don’t bug me nearly as much as McCain’s links to the banking industry. Freddy Mac is definately younger than John McCain: http://www.newsweek.com/id/161218
