potential for long-term shift; major changes since '92, '04. And lots of these, I'll bet, are young evangelicals. Voters who stick with one party thru three cycles are usually there for keeps.

Each vote marginally increases your personal identification with the party you pulled the lever for. Three election cycles, and you're probably a partisan for life, or something near to it. Which means an advantage like this, though potentially temporary, also opens the door to a more enduring electoral edge with this generation.
