I didn't say that. Rather I was responding to Numbers Guy's post # 1 and stating that the difference between the two electorates is more complex than just that. There is the more than compensating factor I mentioned: Conservatives who sat out '08 now returning to vote, plus lefties who voted in '08 now disillusioned and staying home.
As to the likelihood of the same individual voter aging 4 years and becoming more GOP leaning, there is probably some statistical truth to that. I saw one study where 13% of 2008 Obama voters are now voting for Romney. (On the other hand, very few McCain voters in '08 are switching to Obama.) It probably in most cases has more to to do with being turned off by Obama as an individual rather than generically becoming more GOP leaning, though. Either way, I'd be more than happy to have their votes.
LOL. I wasn’t picking on you. The post was really aimed at the conversation in general.
But it is true that as the population ages it becomes more conservative. At the far end they fall off. At the near end, the join as Dem leaning. Net result: not much.
