The under 30 turnout will be terrible - probably like 25%
I don't think the Black turnout will be as high as 2008, not as much historical excitement/malaise.
I secretly think both candidates want turnout to be low for their own advantages. A High Turnout of energized voters is usually bad news for the Incumbent (Obama). Because it shows unrest on polarizing national issues.
Romney wants to a low turnout of Democrats. Republican voters (Evangelicals, Middle Class adults, Seniors, etc.) are usually more reliable at getting to the voting booth.
