2. The obvious enthusiasm gap!

As I hear on DU, young voters are abandoning Obama in droves. Yet I never see evidence of it.

It's going to be an AWESOME event in Ann Arbor.

4. Hilarious isn't it?

The fact hat Obama can draw crowds of students is wonderful!

6. Abandoning Obama In Droves?

No way! Julie, my daughter and her friends are 100% for Obama! They cant wait to vote! Why would young people want to return to the failed policies of Bush/Republicans? I agree that this should be an AWESOME event!

7. I hear that!

My two college age kids are ready to vote Obama! In fact my daughter supported him very early in the 08 primary! Both can't get over what a clown-car show we have on the right.

To all the brilliant kids out there!

8. Very cool to hear that, Julie!

Great to hear your college-age kids are pro-Obama!

"Both can't get over what a clown-car show we have on the right." - Love it!

Kudos to all of these wonderful young people!

she would be right there with them! So would I! Thank you so much for the photos and video. Let's not let 4 years of progress go to waste. Let's get 4 more!

9. Poor Prez. The M$M treats us to endless tales of Ron Paul's young, "enthusiastic" crowds.

You think they could be bothered to report a turnout like this for "O"?

10. You Would Think!

Right on, Tarheel_Dem!

12. If My Daughter and Her Friends Are Any Indication...

They can't wait to cast their vote!

I watched State Of The Union with aforementioned daughter and two of her friends. So happy to see so many students and young people interested in politics and supporting Obama! The last election was daughter's first and she was so excited to have the chance to vote Obama. She and I will very proudly do so again.
