In the last five presidential elections, the Democratic presidential nominee averaged 79 percent of the Jewish vote. However, if the recent election in New York’s Ninth Congressional District is a bellwether, those numbers could change.
This caught the attention of HBO “Real Time” host Bill Maher. On his Friday program, Maher lamented the GOP gains and blamed the shift on Republicans’ belief in the Bible.
“And people might say, ‘Why are you talking about it?’” Maher said. “First of all, I’m talking about it because 42 percent of Republicans think the Bible is literally true. A fourth of them think the Antichrist might be Obama. And this stuff does infect politics. I think it infects that discussion they've been having lately about Israel. Somehow the Republicans stole the Jews.”

It shouldn’t surprise them that ownership of other human beings is compatible with democrat ideology.
Check with Herman Cain's black critics. You'll see.
You took the words right out of my mouth.
if anything, the boy threw them under the bus...
Somehow? The man just isn’t that bright, despite his pretensions. Obama was pounding away at Israel, and somehow the Jews weren’t going to notice? If it makes Maher any happier, I trust the Democrats will still get a majority of their vote, just not as much. Being a liberal is the first identity of any liberal.
As my Jewish friend said, to paraphrase Ronald Reagan, “We Jews aren’t leave the democrat party. The democrat party deserted us.”
We stole the DemocRATS’ Jews? Nice talk Maher, you pig. Hopefully, the GOP won’t treat them the way they were being treated by you and the other piggies in your party.
Some of us were smart enough to never have joined.

Thats a 3 point shift. Three points in each demographic means O loses.
I'd like to win by more than that. And if he loses 3 points in his most loyal demographics its a landslide in some of the others.
Maher hates all religions. Usually he just spews his hate on Christians, but he’s even attacked islam, but not very loudly (not wanting his ugly head cut off).
Bill Maher is all about ownership and control. He is vapid, disgusting democrat.
They vote overwhelmingly LIBERAL in almost every single major election. They have been doing this for years.
And they have reaped what they have sown.
It shouldn’t surprise you the left considers anybody its party, they were the slave party after all.
Republicans did not steal the Jewish vote. They will be leasing it temporarily to get rid of the menace in the oval office. They will return to the Democrat fold shortly thereafter as they always do.
Stole the Jews, huh? The Jews sat around passively waiting for a political party to “steal” them?
What a delightfully condescending remark...
One can’t STEAL something one doesn’t OWN Mr. Maher. You are positively a lump of nothing to even come up with such a vile statement as that. Stop showing your ignorance you little DOLT.
I agree..beside that he is a pain in the grass...tall grass !!JK
They stole our Jews, them hoss-thieves!
