The “youth” vote consists of students and non-students 18 years and older (generally considered to be 26, arising from the Vietnam era concerning eligible draft age). Any analysis of the youth vote which does not bifurcate the student/nonstudent vote misses the point.

Caveat: In 1972 “students” in California were polled 50/50 as splitting between Nixon and McGovern.

Stop the Clintons, now.

Edwards scares me with his campaign against the Democrats which GE/CNBC/MSNBC has been supporting him in.

On Wednesday his scary ad appeared on GE stations where he is screeming:
“Some people say that as long as we get Democrats we will be Ok, (then shouts out THAT’S A LAA.” I am scared since MSNBC debate in which Mathews egged Obama on for days to attack Hillary, then Russert asked Her erroneous questions based on Republican talking points (as usual!), and blatent lies, and then Edwards and Obama VALIDATED THESE and attacked her. this is nut!!

In my humble opinion, Obama will win Iowa.

I started this race as an Edwards supporter and nothing has changed my mind. I like my candidate and I like his policy proposals. But one thing I don’t like about this campaign is how the MSM has covered it. I dread the general election coverage.

Does anyone know the predictive success of polling the Iowa caucuses? ’cause it ain’t like a primary.

Obama is clearly my candidate, and Edwards would be second, but I’m afraid that reality is that Obama Girl and the “Gotta get in line to get that overpriced and underfunctional Iphone the second it comes out” set is hardly going to turn out in more than miniscule numbers in any primary or general election. They never have, and I doubt they ever will.

A draft would get their attention from “Gossip Girl” and reality shows for idiots for half a minute.

How ’bout that the Bushies took a call from their little twin after Ellen egged her on on National TV–is that spine tingling or what. If Jenna had had any sense of humor, she would have started with “Dad–I have new information about the N.I.E. and Iran.”

Starts at the top. This has all been brilliantly planned and executed. Can it be stopped is the question.
