Good points, all, Greenbeard.
The thing is, Over sixty was the only age demographic McCain won, so older voters do tend to skew Republican...
But I think when more of them realize what the Ryan plan is about, they won't.
Indeed, it's odd that they chose to fire a shot across the bow of their
own demographic base. They've put forth a Medicare plan that's unpopular generally but
very unpopular among seniors and they've chosen to bring it front and center in their campaign.
Well, I understand why they did it.
Because the GOP is currently dominated by the TEA Party, and the notion that Medicare must be cut and privatized is central to their philosophy.
Romney may not be able to win with the TEAbaggers, but he can't possibly win without them in the trenches for him, and he knows it.
