Agree there--I am part of this generation(33) and hubby is right on the cusp(41). I have to say most of my peers and many of his are all very conservative, even if they have not identified themselves as such. Hell, even some of the artsy fartsy types I have met in this same generation have been much more conservative for that "type" that is generally much more liberal(the arts).
You are a couple of years older than my son, when I go out preaching among the heathen, I am always suprised, in a good way, about how people your age see the issues.
Many of the Mass FReepers, that I know, are in you and your Husbands age group, funny when you remember that this is a slave state.
