Old people have cable. And they tend to be the most reliable voters.

Don't want to sounds like an asshole, but they are not great for banking on the future because, well 'soon....' They are a shrinking class of voters (at least old voters who have cable). Especially since people my age will one day be old, but probably won't subscribe to DirectTV (or w.e your regional offerings are), we will just be old assholes with Netflix.

I guess we should relate it news papers. Older cable viewers are probably starting to go the way of newspapers. Newspapers are around, but he generation where they heavily influence policy and was the source of news is gone. I still like to enjoy the paper, but I venture I may be a rare case. Cable news will be going the same way and already is heading there. The people that cable news was profound for as a source of information and influence are going to dwindle over time.
