"The Washington Post this morning, quoting figures from the National Election Pool, reports that American Jews voted for John Kerry over George W. Bush by a 78-22 margin -- a margin with no statistically significant difference from George W. Bush's historically small Jewish vote in 2000. CNN reports that American Jews favored John Kerry over George W. Bush by a 76-24 margin."

"In the three states with the largest Jewish populations -- New York, California, and Florida -- American Jews supported Democrats by even wider margins. CNN reports that in Florida, Jews voted for Kerry by an 80-20 margin; in New York, the margin was 80-18; and in California, the margin was 79-19."

The bottom line? George Bush owes the Jewish community bupkis.

"The bottom line? George Bush owes the Jewish community bupkis."


No one said that Bush owes the Jews anything. I've found that the man has never been motivated by what "will get him more votes". He has always done what he thinks is right. If anything, we jews owe Bus a debt of gratitude. I for one am doing my part to spread the word. It takes some time but we'll come around.

MSM Lies!

[Mamzelle]

Dittoes. Staking a claim to influence, a reach for power--that's what's going on. Success has a thousand fathers, that's what this is all about

--anyone who wants to know the real story should fundrace.org and newsmeat.com up all the zipcodes surrounding prominent synagogues. The money went to Kerry and other Dems.

Usually the next line to claims like this is, "Well, now all you Baptists had better go home and shut up."

Considering CNN's coverage of the 2004 campaign, you still take CNN at its word? I would wait until all the precinct-by-precinct data comes in.

The Washington Post this morning, quoting figures from the National Election Pool

And we all know how accurate that was.

In the three states with the largest Jewish populations -- New York, California, and Florida -- American Jews supported Democrats by even wider margins. CNN reports that in Florida, Jews voted for Kerry by an 80-20 margin; in New York, the margin was 80-18; and in California, the margin was 79-19.

The margins could have been reversed in all three of those states, and it wouldn't have changed the outcome. Kerry carried New York and California on the strength of the Christian vote.

Your use of Yiddish is astoundfing.

*eye roll*

By the same token, Bush owes the white community, the black community, the Protestant community, the Catholic community, the Philipino community, the Thai community, the Hispanic community...NOTHING as well.
