Because most of them -- the idealists and the college Republicans -- haven't really experienced real life yet.

It's a good thing that we have such a strong government set up. Even Barack wouldn't be able to run America into the ground in just four years.

Agreed. I mean, Bush has been trying for 8 years, yet the Republic still survives.

Yeah, you really did . . . it was just too easy.

And I'd agree that most college students- republicans too - haven't experienced real life yet. I still live off my parents, but at least I have some sense of practicality.

I imagine you do, and I would guess that lots of college students do. I think I did in college. But even with some understanding of real life gleaned from parents and limited experience, it's just different when you get out and have to make it on your own.
