Michael Dukakis

Mike Dukakis who ran against George Bush Sr. in the 1988 Presidential Election, will turn 88 soon.

Didn't see a thread for him but he will be the only living former nominee of the 20th century besides Bob Dole and Mondale.

Here is his thread.

Former Gov. Michael Dukakis speaks with an attendee at his Northeastern University retirement ceremony. (Max Larkin/WBUR)

He retired from his post at Northeastern this week. Only really of note because it could be time to start using Kitty on your lists:

Quote

Dukakis noted how sad he was that his beloved wife Kitty couldn’t be present. “But she's 87,” he added, “She's starting to show signs of aging — that's the way it is.”

At least he's lived long enough to no longer have the worst famous person in a tank photo accolade.

I’m impressed she’s made it this long honestly. Her alcohol abuse was prodigious.

I mentioned the two of them back in November:

I used to work with him; he sounds like his usual self. Last time I saw him in person was 2018. His wife always seemed to be in worse health than him; she's still getting electroshock treatment as far as I know. They had a routine of always having dinner together every night at 6pm, not disrupted except on the 1988 campaign trail. Such a very attached couple.
