not a big deal thread, but wanted to shout out. 4 kids came to son saying they're leaning democratic

now, who cares about kids. i hear ya. and four, big deal. BUT.. with all the bad talking for democrats, i am still open to all kinds of possibilities in over a year. son told me that in seperate occasions 3, 4 kids (later nailed to 4) have come to him saying, you are liberal. well i tell you, i am leaning towards dems. i don't like the teabaggers.

this is a very very red, fewest dem votes for president per, in the nation. these kids didnt figure this out for themselves. they are hearing it from the parents.

a shout out.

1. That's good to hear. nt

[TBF]

2. That is awesome - and rare here in TX. Let's hope it becomes less rare. nt

3. Sometimes change has to be generational.

We need to keep laying the foundation.

4. FWIW

My husband, life-long (old school) Repub, went and registered Dem the other day. Told him I was going to frame it :) I do appreciate, of course, the value of YOUTH leaning dem...

5. Both my husband and mom..

changed from Repub to Dem...last election. My husband worked for Senator Roth...the right isn't the party of Jack Kemp anymore...

6. husband went independent and has voted dem since kerry. dad voted obama

but now mad at him cause he didnt fix everything and watching too much fox. in laws stopped voting. couldnt vote repug, couldnt vote dem. and quit going to catholic church after a lifetime.

7. It seems that many RW'ers children become Dems while many Lefty's kids stay Lefty.

Possibly RW children rebelling against their ultra-conservative cultist upbringing.

8. maybe. i have had many kids interested and open to knowledge, information

and learning. during obama election kids would come over to play with son, yet follow me around with questions until i shoo'ed them away. i dont go to changing minds. i listen to what they say. give them facts. and theirs to decipher. it has always been a wonderful experience, if nothing else, to see the left isnt "evil" or "heathens".
