One of the things the word association lists point out to me is the generational gap highlighted in both tickets. There are lots of old vs young descriptors, and if you notice each ticket pairs someone born before the end of WWII with someone born in the 1960's. The immediate post war generation of boomers with the Clintons, Gore and GW Bush are missing. So are the politicians born in the 1950's like Huckabee and Edwards. I wonder if the age distinctions would have been more blurred if either campaign included a 50-something candidate on the ticket.
