Herald backtracking already from generational shift theory

The metaphorical bodies of Annette Taddeo, Raul Martinez and Joe Garcia aren't even cold yet and Herald is already slinking away from the "Generational Shift" theory with regards to Cubans it began propagating in 1983. At least for now that is:

With Barack Obama heading the Democratic ticket and a newer, more moderate generation of non-Cuban Hispanic voters emerging throughout Miami-Dade, the Democrats had targeted the Diaz-Balart brothers for defeat.

Now the shift is among "non-Cuban" Hispanics. I see.

UPDATE: I was wrong. They're still peddling this inane bullshit.
