Obama supporters, younger and more diverse than Clinton supporters? |
|
Only the respondents know for sure. Contrasting between previous OP's that where converged on without thought.

2. Yes, more African-Americans support Obama, understandably, and he gets the kids. |

14. Everyone needs a hero. |
|
And I was just poking fun.
I think Obama would do much much more for the socially disadvantaged than Clinton...
And Hillary is the establishment candidate (read "rich and beautiful"... or just "rich").

22. Well I always tend to have at least a fraction of my tongue firmly in cheek. |

Fair enough. But "establishment" Hillary? When you look at Kerry, most of the Kennedys, Oprah, the MSM (and just recently, Dave Matthews, Q-Tip, and Scarlett Johanson etc. etc.,) I think you have to pin the Big E on the O-man.
(Plus, wealth and beauty are always Establishment.)

10. There was no question about that in my caucus precinct |
|
a month ago in Iowa which had over 500 people in total - the Obama group was totally dominated by age 25-and-unders, and took over 50% of the votes in that room...

11. "Younger" meaning 18 - 50! |
|
If you consider everyone below AARP age to be a kid, I guess you could stretch the results to say Obama's voters are young. Younger, yes. But what kind of triumph is it to win the little old lady vote." (I'm 62 but I'm a little old lady for Obama, as is my 90 year old Aunt and my 2 30-something daughters!)
