Young voters in America are growing more liberal these days, while older voters are becoming more conservative. That is a key finding of a new survey by the Pew Research Center. This week we're airing a series of reports on generational politics, highlighting findings in the survey. Today, we focus on baby boomers, those born in the years right after World War II and known for their anti-establishment behavior in the 1960s and '70s. But those beginnings did not create a predictable Democratic voting block. In 2008, boomers narrowly backed Barack Obama, then swung to Republicans in 2010. NPR's national political correspondent Don Gonyea has that story. It should come as no surprise that the baby boom generation is a bit hard to pin down in its politics. After all, it represents 37 percent of the voting age population, bigger than any other age group. And the boomer birth years of 1946 through 1964 cover a lot of time. Just scan the radio dial, where early boomers swooned to Johnny Mathis. The next wave dissected Bob Dylan. As for the youngest boomers, they took to the dance floor.
