“Probably a little bit of both. And a lot of it is just pure politics. Just take the young people--he's attacking the young people in the White House. One of the young men who works for me lived in a house trailer when he was a boy. George Stephanopoulos' people were Greek immigrants and clergy. And they're not all young. Leon Panetta is the son of Italian immigrants, a walnut farmer--he's a walnut farmer. I just think it's just another example of the kind of political rhetoric that's all too prevalent in our society today. If you can't defend your record and you can't run against the other person's record and their proposals, attack them personally, demean them, smear them, try to get other people to look down on them. I don't want to do that. And I have given our people strict instructions that we are to talk about the differences in our record and the differences in our proposal. We are not to attack them in that way. Ms. Dougherty. But isn't age an issue in this campaign?”
