By using arithmetic, it turns out that the Republican Party is dying off.  Same deal with Fox News viewership.

Since the average Republican is significantly older than the average Democrat, far more Republicans than Democrats have died since the 2012 elections.

Turns out that young people aren’t as attracted to 1950 as Republicans thought.

So the people who are actually paying off college loans, making marriage decisions, having or not having children, looking for job, and paying for grandpa’s war ain’t all that thrilled about what a bunch of old white guys have to offer.

The last GOP convention I saw looked like every person in the room owed Noah a dime.  You’d have to carbon date them to figure out how many candles to put on their birthday cake.

And for those  of you in love with numbers, there’s this.

In 2012, there were about 13 million in the 15-to-17 year-old demo who will be eligible to vote in 2016. The previous few presidential election cycles indicate that about 45 percent of these youngsters will actually vote, meaning that there will about 6 million new voters total. Exit polling indicates that age bracket has split about 65-35 in favor of the Dems in the past two elections. If that split holds true in 2016, Democrats will have picked up a two million vote advantage among first-time voters. These numbers combined with the voter death data puts Republicans at an almost 2.5 million voter disadvantage going into 2016.

Phew!  Go kids!
