“Who cares about meaningless polling in between elections”

Who cares about the actual ballots? More Boomers cast ballots with the little x for Obama, then the entire group of the under 30s.

Fact.

From this fact we conclude that the greatest overall contribution to Obama’s election came from the baby boomers.

Also a fact.

Did the young people contribute? Yes, but their contribution was less than the contribution of the boomers.

“your age group is permanently going to be left wing.”

According to this poll, the difference between my age group and yours is 8 percent, and from how you stated about 4 percent from how they were back in 1972.

Seems to me that in another year, this generation will be just as, if not more conservative then yours. Which is to be expected.

“Your age group will not vote Republican in 2012, but the age groups over age 45 will.”

Given the results of the poll, and the rate of change, in another two years, the under 30s will be voting against Obama more then the boomer generation. As we would expect.

You guys had your chance to save the republic. To hold the line on the debt. To stop the spending, and guess what! You CAVED! You shafted us young’uns over to kick the can for another day.

Enough is enough. We need leadership that’s willing to make the difficult decisions to hold the line on spending. If the boomers in power can’t do it then it’s up to us to do it for them.

You are delusional, no wonder your generation appears so stupid, it earns the title of "The Obama Generation", and in 2012, the great majority of your peers will line up for Obama again.

Your generation will never be anything but liberal.
