Via Sullivan, Kristin Soltis at Pollster.com offers some advice to Republicans who might want to reach out to voters who aren’t are old and white:

Fundamental principles of the Republican Party - smaller government, lower taxes - are not embraced by younger voters at the same level as voters overall. Fiscal conservatives and Republicans have quite a bit of work ahead for them in terms of winning young voters, as well….

<snip>

Young voters have a more positive view of government and are not as convinced that the free market provides better solutions than government.

Yet on the issue of taxes, young voters do believe tax cuts can improve the economy, despite their uncertainty about whether or not tax cuts are the best option. If the Republican Party wants to win young voters in the future, an understanding of the ways that young voters view the economy is essential. Messaging that focuses on the need for less government and lower taxes is not likely to be as well received or convincing to this generation. This isn’t to say these messages won’t work, to be sure. But the spectre of Big Government is not as frightening to young voters, nor is the devotion to the free market so prevalent.

But see, all of this will fall on deaf ears. Conservatives are interested in being RIGHT!!!, not understanding that a new generation of voters doesn’t agree with one of their core assumptions.

As they will never moderate that core assumption - they are going the way of the dinosaur. Yesterday’s rage was as much a protest against that - which, at some level, they realize - as anything.
