Youthful Impatience With a Young Administration
By Alex Keefe - Politics DailyMaybe it's because he called Kanye West a "jackass." Or maybe it's because his presidential news conferences aren't as high-energy as his campaign rallies. Though the under-30 set voted for Barack Obama overwhelmingly last November, a group of political experts believe those same young people – once so enamored of their fist-bumping, hoops-shooting presidential candidate – seem less enthusiastic now that he's is actually in office. ...

Can McCain Match Obama Mag Blitz?
By Tommy Christopher - Politics DailyPolitico's Michael Calderone observed the periodical overkill, and pointed me at this great, satirical cover and story from The Onion: WASHINGTON-According to a poll released Monday by Teen Zogby!, both Barack Obama's approval and dreaminess ratings among slumber party–attending tweens have risen to 82 percent following last week's publication of the Tiger Beat cover pictorial "Hangin' With Barack!"

A Musical Tribute to Obama
By Denise Williams - Politics DailyA new music video, the brain child of Will.i.am from the Black Eyed Peas and producer Jesse Dylan (son of Bob), is hoping to inspire many young potential voters to go out for Barack Obama. The video, which uses Obama's own words as "lyrics" is not officially endorsed by the senator's campaign - but the campaign might want to get in front of this professional, well-done video featuring such artists as Scarlett Johansson, John Legend, Herbie Hancock, Kate Walsh, Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Adam Rodriquez, Kelly Hu, Adam Rodriquez, Amber Valetta and Nick Cannon. Check it out - it's well worth the ...
