It seems that the
young voters (18-30) have really been showing up for
Obama this primary season. My question is, Will they show up to vote again in November? The answer: no. In years past political pundits have put a lot of stock in the young voters and it seems they never deliver, if this demographic were to enough to get you elected then we would be looking at former Presidents McGovern,
Dukakis, Heart, Gore and Kerry. As a young voter my self I won't vote for
Obama, I do know some who say they are voting for
Obama (but like most young voters they aren't even registered to vote and it is highly unlikely they will) The sad fact is that most young people aren't registered to vote and they don't care. More people vote for American idol on
Thursday nights than in any presidential election and this is just the world we live in. To make a long story short, unless Ryan
Seacrest is on live TV counting the votes via text message the
young people probably will not deliver this election for
Obama.

I'd vote for Chirsty Lee Cook if she ran for office.
