“Also, as much as it pains me to say this and agree with anything the vacuous Ms. McCain has to say, there is an absolute problem with the GOP’s inability to connect to young people. Denying it does not make it go away.”

Or the GOP (and even some people I have run across on this board) acting like if they (young people) don’t like what the 70 year old geezer likes for principle, then they aren’t worth it anyway. Even though we know 90% of them wouldn’t automatically have liked what their dad liked when they were 19. And unfortunately, whether we like it or not, this is a package world. We are in competition to getting out a message and standing out in the rain with a great message doesn’t beat inviting someone inside to a really fun party with a bad message.

I hope that makes sense as a metaphor.

Here I am with some young uns' at the Tax Revolt in Fullerton last Saturday. I think the Libertarian branch of the party is thriving. A lot of young people are asking, "Who is John Galt?"
