He represents a new generation of politics, The baby boomers are out, their time is over. Just as the old civil war generation churned out terrible leaders toward the end of their time; Grant, Garfield, Hayes, Arthur, Harrison and Cleveland ("The Gilded Age", or "The Forgettable Presidents"). Then we had a new generation take over in Mckinley, Roosevelt, Taft and Wilson in suit with the Progressive movement.

He is change, he is young in terms of politics, from a different era (born in the '60s) and resonates with the over 100 million of his generation or later.

Experience doesn't mean shlt. Some of the most terrible presidents were some of the most experienced.

It will be McCain v. Obama in November and Obama will win. McCain is 71 years old, he was born back when FDR was president, how well do you think that man could represent people 50 years younger than him?
