People are not buying to Obama magic...
Serious problems, and we have a President talking about dogs on cars, someones income tax rate, a Vp talking about chains...
I mean really, people want Leadership....someone who will have a better vision for the economy and jobs, or at least someone who will put a plan out there to discuss....
Agreed. Any young voter with a brain will be voting for R & R, not President Downgrade.
Are you allowed to vote yet? How much time do you spend talking to 18-24 year olds? My job is with this particular age group and I have yet to find more than a handful who are pro Mittens. Even many moderate R's I have met are not voting for the Plutocrat. There has been a huge increase in Republicans for Obama stickers in my area.

Maybe people 18-24 shouldn't vote, sure as hell are not educated enough on the issues. WHen I was in that age group I voted for Clinton his first time around, 20 years later I realize how young and dumb I truly was...

Just because you were dumb at that age doesn't mean all are. So you are for taking away voter rights? I guess you want the age for someone to be able to join the military to be raised to 25? You certainly cannot expect someone to fight for their country but not be able to vote.

That's great but where do you live? Downtown Berkeley, CA?
I have a feeling that most of the unemployed college graduates living in their parents' basement won't be too motivated to get out the vote for Saint HopeNChange.
Nonsense, and were not gonna have a clear sense of the "youth vote" anyway until September or October, when a lot of them have returned to college and/or from partying during the summer, and they've have had some time to chat about these issues further with their peers and friends.
In fact a lot of 'em are probably surviving on student loans, an issue that Obama has been very vocal about supporting and controlling exorbitant interest rates, which I'm sure has not gone unnoticed... just like Romney's advice to simply "borrow from your family if you have to" (right, like everyone has daddies with deep pockets as he did)!

Reason: link..
Romney trailed Obama, 49 percent to 41 percent, in the poll of likely voters ages 18 to 29 -- a significant narrowing of the gap from four years ago, when Obama dominated the youth vote over John McCain by 66 percent to 32 percent.
...
In a nationwide poll conducted online and released weeks before the addition of Ryan to the GOP ticket, CIRCLE found that Obama was leading Romney by a 55 percent to 42 percent margin among 18-to-29-year-old voters.

No not Berkeley. You got the state correct.
