So we'll see how their ideological position changes when more of them settle down, have kids, are confronted with piles of bills and mortgages to pay and... yes, grow old. They may just richochet hard to the right or... there's a good chance that, given their lack of connection to a generation reared in a culture that emphasized moderation and responsbility, will push the country even further to the left. Out of their inability to deal with even the basic challenges of life I can easily see Gen Y'ers turning to government to provide all the answers.
Get off my lawn!

Maybe I'm just getting old, but I pretty much agree here. Too spoiled, too attached to some alternative reality.

Will the GOP be able financially to contest seriously for House and Senate seats? If they run Palin in 2012, it could very well be the end of the Republican party.
