Young conservatives are overwhelmingly more socially liberal than their older counterparts, and that pendulum isn't swinging back any time soon.
However, as social issues become less effective for conservatives and economic issues and foreign policy issues become more prominent, that might wind up being very bad news for the left in the long run.
Yeah, because the Republicans have so much credibility on both after Iraq and the 2008 financial crisis.
Good luck getting the young left to get those points across when they're too busy waxing rhapsodic about the French Revolution.
As young conservatives move towards the center on social issues, the young left moves more towards the fringe on the other issues.
