A couple of years ago I read an analysis claiming that today's young were the most left cohort - not just on social issues but economic ones as well (and sorry for perpetuating that questionable opposition) - in the history of polling. I can't find the reference now though. But this is really heartening - because people don't get more conservative as they age.
