most of the Jewish vote

I don't think so.

But his support for Israel will get a higher proportion of the Jewish vote than any Republican in years, and perhaps have financial effects as well-- there are doubtless many liberal Jews who will unenthusiastically vote for Kerry, but keep their wallets closed.

One very promising trend is among young Jews-- there is a generational shift taking place, and Republicans will do very much better among them in decades to come.

Good point. It seems that younger Jews and foreign born Jews tend to be more conservative.

I sure hope you're right--in Fla it could be vital to get a few more Jewish votes than we did in 2000.

However, just looking at the few Jewish neighborhood (zip codes) that I happen to know about in my limited experience, on fundrace.org and newsmeat.com...donations are strictly Kerry.
