    All Hail 20-Somethings!

    In early September, I wrote a plea to the 20-somethings (known collectively as the "Youth Vote") and begged them to show up this time and "save us".
     
    Judging by the results, 20-somethings, you did show up and, we were saved. Thank you.
     
    As a boomer born in December of 1950, this was the first time I ever voted for a Presidential candidate younger than I am.  It was a pleasure to finally see idealism rewarded and not crushed. 
     
    The cheers in Chicago coming from my television were matched by the sounds from outside my window on the Upper West Side of Manhattan.
     
    All praise and thanks to you, 20-somethings ... You can stay on the lawn as long as you like.
