RE:”Know what, though? It ain't workin’. Those Old ‘60s Activists that made the post-911 world such a complete aggravation are retiring, entering care homes, or dying off. They leave behind their Gen X acolytes who haven't got a clue. The fiddle is becoming more like a dime-store ukelele.:”

I definitely disagree, We are the aging ones.

The average FNC and talk radio listener is about 50.
Obama definitely got the younger vote.

Its that its not working for Obama and Dems like it was in 2012 because Dems are disappointed and demoralized, and Republicans are riled up.

And its a midterm.

Obama is doing every trick he knows to get his 2012 voters to vote again this year, but its an uphill fight for Dems.
Most Senate seats up are in states that Obama lost. And there has been some bad news since the last election.,

No 2014 doesn't tell us what will happen in 2016 at all.

Nope. MUST disagree. Don’t know whether it’s the idiot lib teacher on “Beavis and Butthead” that they grew up with, or the fact that their parents were Reagan-era 20-somethings, but things outside the Dem-controlled cities are STRONGLY changing to Realville conservativism. People are completely fed up with the ‘60s “Oh, what a beautiful world it would be...” crap. Reality is setting in as the “60’s Activists” retreat to their walkers ... and that’s a good thing.

“...Those Old ‘60s Activists are ....dying off...”

Not nearly fast enough.

Obama is using every trick he knows from his gangland Chicago playbook---he is one of the kingpins of Chicago criminal politics in the WH. He needs to get his 2012 voters to vote in this year's midterms, but its an uphill fight for Dems. Most Senate seats up are in states that Obama lost. And there has been some bad news since the last election.

I do believe Obama is becoming unhinged at the thought of losing the Senate (and the House) to Repubs.

One of Obama' biggest problems is that he's lost the trust, not only of Americans----but of Democrats.

He duped sap-happy Dems into Obamacare using unsavory payoff deals like the Lousisana Purchase of Landrieu's aye vote, and he got Dems to stupidly echo his "keep your plan" lies which are biting back bigtime.....the voters are not pleased.

Even more troublesome for Obama is that his flops are impacting Hillary's campaign. That is why we're seeing the Clintons throw Obama under the bus and gleefully drive over him.....they are desperate to separate themselves from the WH flopola.

I would not be surprised if the flopping Obama coat-tails extend to opportunistic creeps like NY's Gov Cuomo.

All in all, makes for good political theatre.
