Excerpt:

The cheering midst of a rally featuring President Barack Obama and a largely college-age crowd of 15,000 on the Oval at Ohio State University would not seem a likely place to encounter those not in the president’s corner.
Yet, the first five students approached at random by a Dispatch reporter on Oct. 9 turned out to support Republican Mitt Romney and his aspirations of replacing Obama in the White House.
The must-vote adoration and enthusiasm for Obama isn’t what it once was among 18- to 29-year-old Millennials in central Ohio, a must-win area in a must-win state for presidential hopefuls.
This is not 2008, when two-thirds of the youth vote broke big for Democrat Obama and his message of change amid the accompanying offer of making history by electing the first black president.
This is 2012, with Obama running on a recession-riddled record. Job prospects are iffy for even educated young Ohioans. Some fear their generation is in danger of failing to match or better their parents’ now-dinged lifestyles.

I heard that one of the networks showed up at Ohio State and asked the first five people he or she met who they were voting for. All five reportedly said Mitt Romney.

Seriously- who wants either one of them for President? The POTUS candidates for the Dems and the Reps are all vetted to carry out the overarching agenda- which is to make the constitution irrelevant and trample on our rights. NDAA was a bipartisan effort. Obama insisted on making it that much worse. Seriously, any other differences between the two are just fluff. Where it all counts- you can't tell much difference without a score card. If millenials think they're going to be any less disappointed with the other guy- then bless their hearts.

I disagree. I think that there are some major differences between the candidates. Every move that obama makes goes towards making things more difficult for Americans, and he also hates America. 2016 obama's America is an accurate assessment of obama's past, present, and what he wants to do for the future.
