I know that I am in a liberal enclave. However, remember that I am primarily a business person and I know a lot of business people out here, many of whom called themselves republicans prior to Bush, it is not like I am still a student at Berkeley or anything. Both coasts, NY and CA where a lot of young professionals gravitated to are devastated as far as work is concerned. On the west coast it is technology, no jobs here for anybody. On the east coast it is banking, brokerage and other support services like acct and PR firms. Very few professional jobs, all of my employees with relatives and buddies elsewhere in the country tell the same story. If you are a farmer or work in oil you are doing well under Bush maybe but the new industries which provided all the promise for the young smart people are shadows of their former selves. The yuppies as they used to be called, as a group do not like Bush at all I am sure of that. Bush just doesn't inspire that this the thing. He's not an optimist or a builder really. I predict there will be no good times under Bush for anybody. Of course there is a constituency of people whose entire reason for living revolves around halting stem cell research and PBAs, and those people will vote for their candidate no matter what.
