Ross Douthat had a nice tweet on Sen. McCain, but he led off by calling him a member of the Boomer generation. He was quickly corrected, by many, including me.
We Silents get no respect--we're stuck between the so-called "Greatest Generation" and the big Boomers. We got no president--all our candidates lost (Mondale, Dukakis, McCain), and we lost or drew our wars: Korea and Vietnam. But for all that, we survived and so did the country.
