I so hope this is true. In 2012, Republicans did make gains among Jewish voters relative to 2008.

The question is, will the veil of deception be lifted from enough Jewish eyes to make up for the influx of illegal RAT voters being ushered into the country by President Ebola and Joe Batin’.

It's not their votes, per se since they're only about 1% of the population. "It's the fundraising, stupid." I will make a note of it for my future Cruz/Palin efforts.

31 Jewish Democrats in Congress and 1 Jewish Republican (Eric Cantor) who'll be leaving soon (no, Jason Chaffetz doesn't count).
Whatever is happening is moving at a glacial pace.

GOP sees signs of Jewish voters
Drifting away from DemocratsThis must be August. It's time for the MSM to revive those perennial summer stories of the "Man Bites Dog" genre. At any rate, this particular story has been running every August since the Wilkie Campaign. Was a great read then, and is great reading now! Unfortunately, it was fiction then and is fiction now! The only place these folks are apt to be drifting in August is on the gentle waters off Southampton and Fire Island.
In the pre-Word Processor days, a savvy City Editor could crank out practically an entire afternoon edition from mattes already made up and ready to go. Use to call it "Dead Horse."

In the words of HRC, what difference does it make?
The rats are replacing Jews with Muslims. Big effing deal. Look here to see where most of Jews live by state.

Now most of the Jews live in solidly blue states. Maybe pushing Jews republican might affect Florida but the rest seem pretty blue to me. They can offset Florida with all the muslim voters they can pander to.

“It’s not their votes, per se since they’re only about 1% of the population”
Keep in mind that American Jews are not proportionately dispersed among the general population. Their population is heavily skewed toward the northeast urban areas where their votes do indeed make a difference - often the difference.

Oh please. Never gonna happen. There has been even more screaming from the American Jewish Community AGAINST Israel than from the Dims.
I get so tired of “happy talk” sometimes that I could just scream.

We hear stories that the Jewish vote is "in play" for the GOP every election cycle, and then the RATs win 70%+ of the Jewish vote on election day.
Reminds me of that bogus story claiming that Bush was "within striking distance" of winning Hawaii in 2004.

They may distrust Obama. But 2 in 3 would vote for him again. And, certainly, 3 in 4 will vote for whatever moron anti-Semite runs for the Democrats in 2016.

Sure and large majorities of illegal immigrants are “culturally conservative” and thus natural candidates for the republican party.

As bad as Cantor was on policies, he was a good role model for Jewish Republications. If voter segments don’t see any of their kind among a party’s elected officials, they assume the party is not interested in them. If we insist on a party free of Specters and Javitses, then we can also expect a smaller segment of Jewish votes and funding (to say nothing of competing in Northeastern or West Coast states.).
