2. Obama leads the pack with the kids.
That shows here and at his speeches where the kids now show up in mass. When he was here in Illinois, the kids talked about going out to see him, but it was mainly us old folks that did the work, spread the word, and filled the galleries. ;-)

13. I don't think they are ALL kids.
I have been reading where he is very popular with the younger crowd now, and in looking at the pictures at the rally the other day, there were many more young faces there than there use to be. Also the OP called those on "my space" the kids. And, by the way, anyone under forty is "kids" to me. Under fifty are young people. That way I can think of myself as still middle aged. ;-)

4. Oh, my............ this does not bode well for them with the youth vote.

Edited on Sun Mar-18-07 06:49 PM by TheBaldyMan

You can even view their vlogs.

The real hip kids know how to spam their accounts.

7. I am not a kid. Should I not have a myspace page?
So as not to skew the "youth vote" on these things? :shrug:
