I’d like to share an anecdote from tonight.

I’m currently consulting in an environment with younger people, many recent college grads. With one or two notable exceptions, political talk is VERBOTTEN.

It was slow tonight, after several days of hurricane-induced stress. When the debate started, a couple of us had it on the computers, in the background, with no volume (1.4 MILLION watched this on YouTube!). But most were watching the football game, and had their fantasy leagues open.

About 30 minutes in, several started glancing at their phones, noticing Snapchats and other messgages about the debate. Very soon, two of the office TV’s were switched to the debate, and the volume went up.

The talk went from football, to how crooked Hillary is, and Donald Trump was “Kicking Her Ass!”.

This won’t show up in any polling tonight, but it kinda warmed my heart to see younger people are not fooled by Hillary, (even the women!), even if they are bombarded with lib propaganda daily.

These people have BIG student loans to pay back, and are realizing that the lib bs they heard in college doesn’t apply in the Real World.
