re: Practically everyone I know who liberal in their youth now supports Bush. The exceptions are the yellow-dog democrats, who have never been on the fence so far as I can recall. But EVERYONE my daughter's age (probably about your age, too) hates Bush. Why? They simply don't understand the ways of the world.

Man, where do you get this stuff? Are you blind and deaf or just stupid?

Well, I'll tell ya, when I'm fifty -- WOOF!

I've already gone the other way; from conservative to liberal, and I will not be going back any time soon.

Also, I should mention that I work with a number of people in their 30s, 40s, and 50s, who are currently espousing ABBB (AnyBody But Bush), including one who held a relatively high position in Bush's father's administration, is a lifelong Republican, and lives in the Beltway.
