Recent College Grads Sour on Obama

In this story from Yahoo and The Daily Caller we find that many of the young Obama-Zombies who voted him into office have now been cured of their delusions by the cold and hard fact of continuing unemployment.

You do have to feel a bit sorry for many of these younger people. I would say it’s a safe bet that they never learned how market economies actually work when they were in school. Most teachers in our schools today are on the left, if not the hard communist left. So it is to be expected that young students “graduate” with no understanding of how things operate in the real world.

In the real world, larger and larger government tends to have a negative effect on the private sector of the nation. And it’s the private sector that drives everything else. If you kill it off, you can expect everything else to go down as well in due time. Young people are seeing for themselves the real world effects of the policies of the left. And they are re-considering their views in large numbers if these polls are any indication.

A very large proportion of recent university graduates have soured on President Barack Obama, and many will vote GOP or stay at home in the 2012 election, according to two new surveys of younger voters.

“These rock-solid Obama constituents are free-agents,” said Kellyanne Conway, president of The Polling Company, based in Washington, D.C. She recently completed a large survey of college grads, and “they’re shopping around, considering their options, [and] a fair number will stay at home and sit it out,” she said.
