Hmmm... is President Obama just not cool on college campuses anymore? The Atlantic is wondering and some vague studies of the uber-liberal atmosphere of Oberlin College seem to reveal that this is the case, but I've got to wonder. I think President Obama will be plenty popular on college campuses for some time to come- especially given their usually liberal bent. But I do think there's something to the notion that young people, like everyone else are starting to feel the squeeze a bit more. Employment for recent college graduates is shit. College costs are going upwards with every passing year and there's more debt than you can shake a stick it when you graduate from college. (Plus, courtesy of Instapundit, we see totally uncool things like this as well.)
So, I think there's going to be a fall off in the President's popularity when it comes to college campuses, but I think he'll still probably remain pretty high up there overall.
