"What did you think of the 48 percent of the Boomers who voted for McCain? They really sold us down the river."

If you're talking about the general election I don't think so. I'm sure most of them voted holding their noses knowing it was the lesser of two evils. The only reason I voted for him was who the VP candidate was. No, the true tragedy are that people like myself didn't even get to pick my candidate before "Independent" voters in New Hampshire did. Now that's ridiculous and those are the people I blame. All the idiots in the first primary states that chose McCain as our nominee. In Pennsylvania the vote was already decided. In fact, I changed my affiliation to Democrat, voted for Hilary to participate in Rush's operation Chaos...

“If you’re talking about the general election I don’t think so.”

That’s a fact, btw. Boomers split 48/48, between Obama and McCain. Young voters usually don’t make a difference, because of the numbers. The only time they do, is if the older generation has significant support for Obama.

“I’m sure most of them voted holding their noses knowing it was the lesser of two evils.”

Well, not enough of them did and enough stayed home, and enough voted for Obama, to put him in. If they go, say, 43-53 against Obama in 2012, he’s toast.
