They don't know much, if anything, about Clinton or Bush, so they just say they approve of them. This in no way shows mass support for Bush among younger voters. All it does is show their general ignorance and apathy.

Sounds slightly elitist. Pretty harsh judgement to make. Perhaps it shows that age group being a tad more moderate. They were favorable towards Clinton and now they're favorable for Bush. Just because they didn't stick to one side hardly shows them to be ignorant and apathetic. I generally liked Clinton, I have a favorable opinion of Bush. I'm under 30. Perhaps I am ignorant and apathetic, but I wouldn't judge the intelligence of an entire group based on these numbers.
