"In New Square, for instance, President Bush won 99 percent of the vote; in 2000 he captured only 21 votes in New Square. When asked to explain the shift, the Skverer Rebbe answered, "Hakoras hatov.""



What does "hakoras hatov" mean? If I recall the 2000 elections correctly, I would guess that it means "this time Hillary didn't promise to free the local rabbi who was convicted of a felony."
