You cant do in the house and senate. when youre younger your chances of winning in a house or senate race are smaller than if youre running in a state legislative race. >> shepard: you look across the landscape, looks like theyre not as fixed on party labels. and in fact theyre less attached than any generation weve seen in modern times. seems like theyre all trying to strike their own chorus. >> thats right. millenials have sort of independent active streak within them. the studies show there i...
