“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.
