With that said, I read her remarks regarding the stance and it is the usual conundrum I see in many college aged “conservatives.” Libertarianism is a cool choice for young people on many college campuses - it allows for conservative views based on a more palatable idea of personal freedoms.

That's not the worst of what she did. If she had been CONSISTENT I would agree with you. But during the pussy hat parade in January, she said abortion was MURDER. Now when she goes on The View she claims she's pro-choice and that pro-life conservatives are "hypocrities" and false Christians? WTF? Clearly she is a liar angling for a big payoff on a liberal network. she is dead to me forever. As far as Meghan McCain, I agree, she makes Toni Lahren look like Steven Hawking.

The foundation for what we believe is hardened by the cement that only comes with time. I don’t give this young lady much thought as I said, but knowing many young people and having discussions with them they flip-flop quite often for a myriad of reasons.

I love young people and they represent our future, but this is why I give them little thought for big issues. It is not meant as a slam, it is simply a truth that I have observed enough to label it as statistically significant. Modern media is so enamored with the youth demographic that they desperately seek pundits in that age group. It is a major target demographic for advertisers and those pay the bills.

Much of what we see in modern media is marketing over substance. Subsequently, too many of us “old farts” spend too much time here on FR debating the wisdom of marketing tools. Your thoughts are appreciated and best wishes.
