Senator John McCain visited Late Night with Conan O'Brien yesterday and listened to O'Brien's complaints that the only angle he (and other late night hosts) could really use with McCain is that he's old. So McCain pretended to fall asleep. [Clip below, too.]
O'Brien also broached the subject of McCain's potential running mate. Boston.com noted that O'Brien referred to what McCain had previously said about the #2 job, "I think you said, 'The vice-president only has two duties. One is to break a tie vote in the United States Senate. The other duty is to inquire daily as to the health of the President.'" And McCain replied to that with, "And that job will be very, very important with my Vice President!" That's still an age joke, no?
