let's all get together and vote against our economic interests, shall we?

from USATODAY.com

Over the long run, some Republicans argue the issue could boost the party. “It's possible there is a new generational politics at play,” GOP pollster Bill McInturff says. If older voters could be reassured about the plan, “we could hold seniors at bay and attract millions of younger voters” with the prospect of a better return for retirement.

Sure, there is always the PROSPECT of higher returns, but the transitional costs and benefit cut are not prospective, they are actual. And see if you can guess who votes in greater numbers, especially in off-year elections... like 2006. Nope, I don't think the re-election minded Congressional incumbents are going to like these poll numbers one bit. See especially the results of question #19.
