http://washingtonexaminer.com/a-rom...th-vote-back-him/article/2504893#.UDZeTNCe5AtZogby has been especially interested in the youth vote this election. In 2008, 66 percent chose Obama over Sen. John McCain,the highest percentage for a Democrat in three decades. But their desire for hope and change has turned to disillusionment and unemployment. Zogby calls them "CENGAs" for "college-educated, not going anywhere."
Zogby speculates that Romney's selection of 42-year-old Rep. Paul Ryan helped turn more younger voters to him. "It could be his youthfulness," said Zogby of Ryan. Plus, he said, more younger voters are becoming libertarian, distrustful of current elected officials and worried that they are going to get stuck with the nation's looming fiscal bill.
Maybe they figured out that at some point they will need a job.

Reagan was the messiah? The trickle down retards have been promising jobs since the 80's... Yeah, let's give THIS option another chance seeing as how well it has worked out the past 12 years....
obama is just as bad as romney
Worse, Obama has already proven he cannot fix the economy.

If anyone thinks Romney will get 40% of the young vote, they are on drugs. Young people far and away are staunch liberals. Thats everywhere too.

Obama's failed economic policies are hitting the youth the hardest. Black youth unemployment is setting new records every month.
Young folks won't be voting for him, he has totally screwed them.
It's so bad because of Obama we're going to lose an entire generation of workers due to his failed polices and presidency.
lulz. Will you have my $500 ready on November 6th?
No one takes Zogby seriously. They aren't included in anyone's analysis anywhere in this election cycle.

Young voters preferred Obama over John McCain by 68 percent to 30 percent — the highest share of the youth vote obtained by any candidate since exit polls began reporting results by age in 1976, according to CIRCLE, a non-partisan organization that promotes research on the political engagement of Americans between ages 15 and 25.
Reagan knocked unemployment from 10.8% to 5.3%. Don't let facts get in the way of your theory.

ZOGBY: Demographics and 2012 - The Creative Class
By John Zogby, Forbes Contributor
...
"So when we talk about 2012 being a base election, we already have seen in this column how vital Obama's support among Hispanics and African Americans will be. The fact that he is coming up a little short among young voters is a great cause for concern. But how is he doing among the creative class? In a nationwide poll of 1052 likely voters taken by JZ Analytics (August 15-16), we found that about one in three voters overall considered themselves members of the creative class. Given that the turnout was about 133 million voters in 2008, this figure looks about right in conjunction with Richard Florida's account of 40 million. In that poll, President Obama leads former Governor Mitt Romney 46% to 41% among all voters and his lead is a healthy 52% to 36% among creative class voters, with 12% undecided. We found this group more prepared to vote for a Democratic candidate for Congress in their district 45% to 31% (compared with 41% to 38% overall).
But this is not quite a rosy picture yet for Mr. Obama and his team. By 48% to 42%, creative class voters feel he deserves re-election - but he will need to secure a significant majority of these voters to win re-election. In the key state of North Carolina, where presently our polling (August 15-17) shows Romney leading by two points, creative class voters are tied at 46% over whether the President deserves re-election and the President leads his GOP challenger by only 10 points - 49% to 39%. That is not enough.
In Florida, there is a different story. The President leads overall by 7 points in our JZ Analytics Poll (August 15-17) and the creative class in Florida supports him by 20 points - 57% to 37%. By a factor of 53% to 40% feel he deserves re-election, and they rate his job performance positively 56% to 42%. That is certainly what he needs to maintain his lead in Florida - and numbers similar to these are what he will need in other battleground states to ensure his re-election."
