Of course the Baby Boomer generation was not as monolithically liberal as its liberal spokesman try to pretend. In fact in many ways it was politically less liberal than the generation that voted in the New Deal and the Great Society. The thing that was different was the acceptance (by some) of a perverse personal morality that tolerated drugs and encouraged a casual attitude toward sex. Some boomers outgrew it, some never got beyond it, and a great number never accepted it in the first place. I'm pretty sure a higher percentage of boomers voted for Ronald Reagan than did their parents.

I'm a boomer who was always a right-wing Republican, before, during and after "The Summer Of Love." And I know a lot of people like that.
