Even though I'm in a red state, there's quite a lot of temporarily embarrassed boomer Blue Dog Dems, boomer neo-cons, plus a not insignificant number of leftists coming in from the colleges and straight into the healthcare, gov, and educational institutions. All these groups are starting to work themselves up over the coof. I'm hearing from family and colleagues about how they're canceling trips, starting to mask, all that craziness, regardless of age or political party.

I am not convinced people will ignore whatever mandates come in from on high.
