Fascinating. It's obvious from people I know that not all Boomers are Boomers. I'm sure a lot of Freepers belong to the Boomer generation but don't identify with Woodstock. I'd be interested to see further analysis of this thesis.

I was born the same year as Rush: 1951. About as Boomer as you can get. Never had any use for the peace/love/Woodstock crowd -- I was a techno-geek. Guys like me wanted to work in the space program, which is as far from "dropping out" as can be imagined.
The Woodstock crowd is disproportionately represented in the mediacracy, and they skew everyone's perception of culture accordingly. But this, too, shall pass.
Can't wait. My kids are Xers, and all as conservative as you could wish. Let's bring it on!

I would, too. Particularly the Boomer voters separately from seniors and younger voters.
