re: #186 simoom

This Gallup article from a couple days ago was also interesting:
Age Groups Differ on Obama More Than on Bush, Clinton

Basically Obama’s approval rating is under 50% with both the over age 50 age groups, and over 50% with the two younger age groups. It’s particularly high with 18-29yr olds and particularly low with the 65+ category (there’s currently nearly a 20 point approval gap between the two age groupings).

I’ve seen some speculation that it might have something to do with whether or not most of the news an age category consumes comes from traditional media versus online sources, but who knows.

The average age of Rush’s listeners is 74.
