There's a story in my stack that says the youth vote has simply lost its energy. The youth vote that showed out in such force in the 2008 presidential election, with so much enthusiasm and so much idealism and so much love and devotion and cult-like attraction to President Obama, that voting group is now, eh, not interested.
And you know why? They're not interested anymore, they've lost their enthusiasm because the Democrats have failed to pass health care. That's the story from the AP. That's the analysis. Yes, the young have lost their enthusiasm, not because Obama hadn't done anything, not because everything's getting worse, not because the future doesn't look bright for anybody. No, no, no. It's because the Democrats didn't pass health care. That's why the youth aren't planning on voting. They've lost their enthusiasm. They didn't care about health care to begin with. These are the people who don't ever think they're gonna die. They're not thinking about the catastrophic disease that's going to wipe 'em out. They're still thinking they got their parents to lean on if they do get wiped out by something. Can always move back home. This is patently absurd.
Kids with the short attention span. They're still waiting for the health care handout. Its funny if the times weren't so dark. So for all the millenials who went big for Obama, how's all that hopenchange been working out for them so far?

if you are a socialist at 18 then you have a big heart if you are still one at 30 you have no brain
how true those words are
maybe when these students and fool actually start working of they can get a job and they pay taxes, bills, kids etc then they will understand what the hell the grown ups are saying
also why doesn’t students pay taxes in the town they go to school
we have a small college here and the students , well a few walk around like it’s their town telling us how to be and what to put up with.
they use the town and do not pay anything and yet they go to vote here
why? \
maybe if they had to pay tax in the town they go to school then they would understand about us paying taxes etc
Taber continued, "I mean, like, for instance, I don't know my butt from a hole in the ground and neither does Obama or anyone in his administration.
So like, I really like the tenor of being so much alike, you know what I'm saying?"
When was this article written? From the date, it’s quite recent, but from the content, as if Christmas bomber, Scott Brown, and many other things (inc. SOTU) haven’t happened yet.
