Will a generation of kiddies, kidlets, and piglets be turned off to politics if Obama blows it in November?

I mean, really, folks, let's face it: the kiddies have the attention span of well-fed house cats. Don't you think that if The Chosen One is unable to fend off McCain come November that the kids will just say something along the lines of "Well, what did you expect - the whole thing is rigged anyway!"?
