Honestly, I think both generations need better spokesmen or representation. The loud Boomers seem to be idiots like John Kerry and Bill Clinton. George W. Bush is a much better representative. A real man.
Then there's my generation. I am married and have four children, yet sometimes feel years older than some of the people my own age. I know a single 34 year old who still whines about the "rich Republicans", while he's still making $10 or $11/hr. at a data entry job. Never realizing that money isn't going to just fall into your lap. He has yet to take responsibility for life instead of just whining about it. I'm sure that's how a lot of Boomers must see us. Not to mention the airheads that like to say "Dude" a lot.
I know I am repeating myself, but we really need better representation.

I agree, So far all we have is "Friends" and the reality shows (At least in the 80's we had Micheal J. Fox on Family Ties) as our representatives. Besides a few in State Legislators here and there I don't know of any Gen-Xer in high political office and unfortunately that's going to be the case for awhile as the Baby Boomers will refuse to give up power and there is too many of them to dislodge.
