Link: Young Obama backers AWOL from health care fight

NEW YORK — Add this to President Barack Obama’s problems in selling his health care overhaul: A lot of the tech-savvy activists who helped put him in office are young, feeling indestructible and not all that into what they see as an old folks issue.

It’s a crucial gap in support and one the White House may have to correct if Obama is to regain the momentum and get Congress to act on his top domestic priority.

I am honestly curious—where the hell is everyone? Maybe we don’t care in today’s fast paced twitterific world, but health care will one day be important for us younger voters as well.
