Clinton Losing Millennial Support Nationally and in Key States

121. Got it in one.

There are a few of us here, but it's frustrating to be a millennial Hillary supporter (especially on the internet). Shocking, we exist!

The thing is, you have to remember that most of us don't remember the first Clinton Administration. We were children watching cartoons and learning to roller blade. We didn't see how Hillary Clinton was vilified constantly by the Republicans and the press or witnessed any of her successes. Most everything we know about her is through a lens filtered by time and right-wing propaganda.

Actually, if you look at polls that breakdown support by younger millennials and older millennials, Hillary does best with those who may have memories of her as First Lady, and she does poorest with those who don't.

So 30 years of attacks can be a hard wall to knock down. Far too many people I know uncritically repeat the slander they've heard elsewhere, and when you ask them to break down why they feel that way, they can't. The impression is enough.

But I ask those who would throw all millennials under the bus to remember that no generation is homogeneous in thought or behavior. And no generation is perfect.
