Well, obviously people can change over 30 years. However, when said
terrorist is unrepentant (and on the record with the New York Times to
that end), it shows the said person *has not* changed. Ayres has said
he wishes the Weather Underground had "done more."
30 years only makes a difference if the person is regretful. And, I'd
personally prefer someone who is regretful about a divorce thirty
years ago (and accepts responsibility, as McCain does) than someone
who helped kill people in terrorist actions -- regretful or not.
