I don't understand such a huge shift?


Poll: Romney's advantage among older Americans is crumbling

 (Reuters) - Even before his running mate was booed by a lobbying group for older Americans on Friday, Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney was losing support among such voters, whose backing is crucial to his hopes of winning the November 6 election.
 
New polling by Reuters/Ipsos indicates that during the past two weeks - since just after the Democratic National Convention - support for Romney among Americans age 60 and older has crumbled, from a 20-point lead over Democratic President Barack Obama to less than 4 points.
 
Romney's double-digit advantages among older voters on the issues of healthcare and Medicare - the nation's health insurance program for those over 65 and the disabled - also have evaporated, and Obama has begun to build an advantage in both areas.

In my neighborhood two white elderly couples already have their Obama sign on the lawn. Good times. Another 4 years of the Obama regime will wake more stupid white sheep up.

Old people have nothing to lose. It's us and our kids that are getting fucked.

Old people have nothing to lose. It's us and our kids that are getting fucked.

If that's the case why don't we see pissed off disgruntled old people going on mass shooting sprees? Because they are worried about if there is a heaven or hell when they die.
