I don't think it's necessarily succumbing to it. Usually it's more of the fact that you're well established and have money and a house, so you feel that things don't need to change anymore so you end up voting conservative. However since it's seeming more and more likely home ownership and even retirement are too far away to ever be achievable for young people this shifting to conservative as you get older might not happen anymore.
Now that you mentioned, maybe once a person get into position of power, they become conservative.
