THIS IS PROBABLY WHY THE DEMOCRATS ON THE FEC ARE GOING AFTER ALTERNATIVE MEDIA: Democrats Face Disaster As Millennials Jump Ship.

A prominent Democratic pollster is warning that the election looks to be “a disaster” for Democrats because younger, so-called millennial voters, are abandoning President Obama’s party.

“Millennials could have the definitive impact on the election, and that impact could be from them not showing up,” warned Celinda Lake.

“They look to have the lowest turnout rates right now which would be a disaster for progressive candidates,” she added in an online interview for Harvard University’s Institute of Politics.

Lake, one of the Washington’s top pollsters, said that younger voters are frustrated with the Democrats and feel abandoned by politics.

The solution, obviously, is to quash any voices that might encourage that.

UPDATE: Austin Bay emails:

Over the last two years I have met dozens (scores?) of 20 somethings who are disgusted with their economic prospects. In the last year I noticed many of these young people were beginning to connect their disappointment to Obama. Who knows — are they finally connecting them to statist/socialist (crony( economic policies as pursued by the Democratic Party?

Conservatives need to start discussing America’s “economic generation gap” — and put the blame where it belongs: on statist and crony politics, to include an insanely complex tax code that begs for seeking favors.

Indeed.
