>> now it is. >> who do they see as more -- as a group that is more likely to be mobilized to get out the vote, to be enthusiastic for november? is it young people that you would have in college audiences like tonight? young voters who don't usually turn out in great numbers for midterm elections? or are they likely to get more distance out of trying to motivate their actual base, the traditional democratic base including union members, liberals, and that sort of thing? >> you're right that historically the youth vote doesn't really come out in midterm elections but presidential elections. obama's 2008 campaign was the exception to the rule. and this is the first midterm election in the age of social media. and i say that facebook, twitter, all these tools are there for politicians to really take advantage of. and obama was able to do that in 2008. the problem is that he hasn't engaged the same people in the way that would be productive for 2010. and it remains to be seen whether groups like organizing for america or the white house
