Another Close Election

This headline from Drudge:

NICKELODEON 'KIDS VOTE'... Obama 51% (1,167,087), McCain 49% (1,129,945)...

I have to tell you, I'm frankly surprised by the results. I would have expected Obama to win with better than 60% of the vote. I guess there aren't as many stupid young people out there as the media would have you believe.

If I were the Obama campaign I'd be a little worried about this. The parents of those kids, from which you'd expect the children to get their political leanings, would seem likely to lean heavily towards Obama. The fact the vote was this close is very curious.

UPDATE: Kids chose John Kerry in 2004 with 57% of the vote.
