And there go the kids

The Man without a Message is already falling behind with women voters; now younger voters are turning away. From the NY Post “Kids Quit Kerry”:

Democrat John Kerry has lost his lead with under-30 voters because the iPod generation is getting more optimistic that the country is headed in the right direction, a new Newsweek poll found.

President Bush and Kerry are now in a dead heat among the youngest voters with Kerry getting 45 percent and Bush 44 — a big switch from last month, when Kerry had a 9-point lead of 50 to 41 percent among under-30s, the GENext voter poll found. Its error margin is plus or minus 5 percentage points.

Kerry's core demographic is shrinking...shrinking...
