Well to be fair, 85 percent of college kids did not vote for Obama. My kid has lots of conservative friends in college, and many are at home living with parents, just like the “liberal” kids that voted for Obama.
Thankfully, our son has a good job and is able to afford his own expenses, but he’d love to be sharing his home with a roommate to cut down on his expenses...only problem is, none of his friends, or acquaintances, make enough money to be able to afford it. I’ve been amazed at the number of grown guys living with their parents.
I’m glad he’s not living with us, but I guarantee, he’s more thrilled that he’s not living with us, LOL.
85% of college kids did not vote for Obama?
In your immediate social circle perhaps. The fact is:

What’s more, young voters may prove to have been the key to Barack Obama’s victory. Young voters preferred Obama over John McCain by 68 percent to 30 percent — the highest share of the youth vote obtained by any candidate since exit polls began reporting results by age in 1976, according to CIRCLE, a non-partisan organization that promotes research on the political engagement of Americans between ages 15 and 25.
