That’s what Michael Barone says in his column today.

Obama was overwhelmingly popular among younger voters in 2008, but his whole agenda is harmful to their future prospects in life. He sold himself as a high-minded, forward-looking visionary, but the truth is now painfully apparent. He’s an old-school pol who rewards his political allies and sneers at those who disagree with him. His economic program is hollowing out the productive sector to expand the state. He spends money recklessly on political trinkets of little or no long-run benefit — money that young workers will be taxed to repay.
