really late bloomer

Trent Lott just told Chris Matthews that he thinks "John McCain is a different man than he was in 2000" because "he's matured."

The dude is seventy-two years old. In 2000 he was sixty-four. But he's "matured" since then.


These people are devoid of principles, bereft of honesty and integrity, and will say and do anything, no matter how stupid it is, to further their ends. That's pretty much the definition of a career criminal. Or today's republican party.
