Israeli adults choose President Bush over Senator Kerry by a margin of 48% to 29%, according to a poll released last week in Israel;
Among Likud voters, the result was Bush 69% / Kerry 18%;
But didn't Kerry say that everyone in the world wanted him to be president?
"and dare I say New York"
Dare! Dare!
In other news... Muslim fanatics and suicide bombers overwhelmingly support Kerry...
One would thnk that were it not that American Jews vote Dem by 70% to 30% ratio.
Drat! I thought this was about something like the Rumble in the Jungle or the Thrilla in Manilla. Turns out it's just a poll.

Haha... very funny. God that would be a good fight though. I think Bush could take him though...
This is great news, but do you have a link to a source?
Hey mofo,
Kerry is not a Jew. His father was never a Jew. His grandfather converted before his father was born.
I'd question the credibility, it's irrelevant anyway
Even Buchanan laughed at that suggestion.
But not in Miami Beach. UGH!!!
Isn't Judaism dependent on the mother's side anyway? It wouldn't matter what his father/grandfather was, but his mother/grandmother. I think I read that somewhere...
No less relevant than the press reports of how the rest of the world hates Dubya. Israel is this country's best ally.
Funny, Jews here in the USA will vote for Kerry over Bush by a wide margin.
Likud = Conservative. It's like a poll saying 90% of Repblicans support Bush. That's hardly news.
Over 50% of Jews under 30 voted for Bush in 2000, so the tide is turning.
Yes, Judaism is through the mother, so if your father is Jewish and your mother isn't and you want to be Jewish, you have to convert.
Yes, you're right. Kerry's paternal grandmother and paternal grandfather apparently were born Jewish but converted to Catholicism in Bohemia before immigrating into the US in or before the 1920s.
Since his father (and not his mother) was their son, Orthodox Jews would not consider him Jewish even his father had been a practicing Jew until his dying day -- and even if Kerry himself claimed to be Jewish (unless he converted to Judaism).
I hope that is true. Because here in my leftist office, we have several Jewish people and they are 100% on the democratic plantation.
