"It seems like Obama&amp;#x27;s biggest fans are losing interest&amp;amp;#8212;in a recent poll, his support among the youth vote dropped 16 percent, while McCain gained 20 points in the same demographic. I&amp;#x27;m not one to trust one 1,000 person poll and see a trend, but this loss is alarming. Why are those young voters changing their minds? I think it has a lot to do with hype fatigue, frankly. In an age when last month&amp;#x27;s most-beloved new band quickly quicly becomes this month&amp;#x27;s disappointment, can the internet generation be expected to stay loyal and keep feeding the Obama trend machine until November? We are a fickle bunch, and our post-adolescent obsessions change from day to day. But I haven&amp;#x27;t given up on my age cohort &amp;amp;#8212;or my candidate&amp;amp;#8212;yet. This is the president we&amp;#x27;re talking about, not a Project Runway contestant or recyclable pop star. So while Obama needs to get the memo about how we&amp;#x27;re not a totally locked down voting block, we also shouldn&amp;#x27;t lose hope that he&amp;#x27;ll come through as more than a one-hit nominee. What do you think about his point drop? And to all my fellow young voters: sure, Obama had us at &amp;amp;quot;Yes we can,&amp;amp;quot; but can we? &amp;amp;#8212;Fern"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
