America's Youth Getting Their Liberal On?

The NY Times reports that a survey of Americans aged 18-29 are more liberal than in the past. As they continue to drift to the left, they are also paying more attention to elections. (Ah, the great hope and fear of every politician every election cycle. Except Mark Strama.) \

My favorite conclusion:

...[T]hey believed that the nation was prepared to elect as president a woman, a black person or someone who admitted to having used marijuana. But they said that they did not believe Americans would elect someone who had used cocaine or someone who was a Mormon.
HA! You can smoke the mary jane, just don't be a Mormon! Don't you love kids?
