By the way, the youngest boomers are 50--I'm 52.
And sure we are getting old--just don't blink, you'll be here before you know it.
Now, all that being said, as one of those middle-aged, boomer women, Hillary is the last person I want to see on the ballot. I didn't like her last time, and she has done nothing to change my mind.
The polls are based solely on name recognition right now. This time in 2006, Barack Obama was just barely on the radar as a long shot, and McCain was expected to drop out, his numbers were so low.
I'd expect, if everyone on this sight participated in a poll, Hillary's numbers would not be nearly as high as they are in the general public, though most of us would vote for her in the general, if that's what we're stuck with, because no matter how bad she is, the republican will be much, much worse.
