More 'professional' election analysis

This Business Week writer doesn't have a clear understanding of Gen X's small contribution to the United States' population and has morphed Gen Y into us. Regardless, thanks for the unearned credit.

Lesson #3- Gen X is more powerful and imporant than the Boomer generation. Hard as it may be to accept for the dominant and dominating demographic, the boomers, it's influence in society is waning. The even larger (by a smidgen) Gen X generation, with its own net-centric ways of organizing and communicating, is starting to take control of US society. The message to politicians and managers alike is simple: Don't play old King Canute and stand on the shore telling the tide not to come in. The Gen X tide is inevitable and overwhelming.
