Sorry, but the elderly that I know are all in the Obama camp. They love him because they think he's going to give them freebies. This was, after all, the generation that raised the boomers and grew up under Roosevelt, and to them, there's nothing better than government intervention.
Well, I live in Central Florida, often called God's Waiting Room, and I'm a senior, and most of my friends and neighbors are for McCain. That's because most of us crafted a retirement lifestyle not based upon Roosevelt, but rather on conservative principles, since the government has never given us much, but rather has taken a lot.
The liberal leanings of Clinton and Obama are a put off to a generation that has worked hard all their lives and now want to live their lives out in contentment.
God’s Waiting Room,,that’s the first time I heard that.
