Today's old people vote Republican.  It wasn't always this way.  The Greatest Generation, which swept FDR into office, remained very Democratic into their old age.  
Those who are alive today still are.

People tend to keep their political leanings from their youth.  Yes I do expect that Millenials will drift to the middle somewhat in their age, but barring a party flip or something of that nature, I think the Democrats will be able to count on them for the rest of their lives.  It will be interesting to see if millenials start voting more as they get older, or if the older generations are just more active.
