This is a well-written satire by Jonathan Braun, although I would somewhat disagree with the statement that “Obama’s support in the Jewish community seems rock solid” at this point. From anecdotal reports, there appears to be a significant amount of “buyer’s remorse,” but I haven’t seen any recent credible polling data on this.

Thanks for your input on this, js. You always seem to know what’s really going on.

Younger Jews do trend more Republican than the older generation. Bush won a third of Jews under 40 in 2004 according to an American Jewish Committee poll done before the election:

snip The Democratic stand-bearer did better among older age groups. Bush gained fully a third of the support of Jews under 40, while Kerry polled 59%; Jews ages 40 to 59 showed 25% support for Bush and 64% for Kerry; those 60 and older went 19% for Bush and 74% for Kerry. A separate poll of Russian Jews in New York showed majority support for Bush, Harris said. snip

OK, if it's satire I missed it, but I'll go out and eat a Christian.

What makes you think it's satire?

Heh... of course, even if it weren’t rock solid, there would still be a hundred FReepers a day posting the reminder that whatever percent supported Obama in the 2008 election fiasco. ;’)
