My kid is a Gen-Xer, hates Rats almost as much as I do, along with many of his pals. Started when I did his taxes for his first real job, started listing to Rush and it was all down hill after that, I don't like Rush.

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).

Today at the lunch table in the campus cafeteria, we had a debate about politics. Everyone was railing on the ONE Democrat at the table. ONE! And she is a PRO-LIFE Dem at that. Not one person at the table was pro-choice.

The reason I mention this is that not all the people I sit with LOOK like your typical conservatives. One looks rather countercultural and several others have this "intellectual liberal socialite (sp?)" look to them. But, they aren't liberal. Looks can be deceiving and I think the folks on this site that stereotype Gen X'ers as a bunch of fools need to open their eyes.
