fred,

I’m not sure where you got you’re information about those under 40 but I would remind you that most of those under 40 that you dismiss as “overwhelmingly don’t vote repub” are the “kids” that grew up under the great Ronald Reagan and remember what and who a real conservative is. I’m 50 and many like me are just dissallusianed with what the republican party has become…democrat light. There are plenty of conservatives that are not real excited about our choices.

One other point. Those Reagan democrats were mostly from the south. The south is still very conservative……and Bush won…… twice. The Democrats won in 2006 and have ZERO to show for it. They may do well this time in the senate and congress but I think its going to be very very close for the presidency and McCain may pull it off. Personally I’d just as soon see the democraps pull it all off so all of their whining and corruption can be fully exposed. They will have no one to point the finger of blame at but themselves like they have so famously done to President Bush.
