Personally, I think it's a question of Jews realizing that the only voice of tolerance in America now comes from the right. The PC, "thought crime" promoters of the left are looking more and more like the nazi party, and that can't sit well with the Jewish community.

It may not sit well with the conservative Jewish community. It sits just fine with the left-wing Jewish community, a community that has done more than its share in facilitating it.

Plus, you will see more and more discrimination against Jews as affirmative action proponents try to wring all they can out of the system. And what happens when Muslims significantly outnumber Jews in the country? The Dems will drop their concern for Jewish votes (but still take their money).
That poll of young Jewish voters seems also in line with ones I've seen speaking of the black electorate. So in addition to anti-Christian bigotry, the older Jews (like blacks) still carry their outdated views of the political climate. Many still think that Republicans are the party of John Birch. As I said on another thread, many older blacks have never forgiven Republicans for Barry Goldwater's opposition to the Civil Rights Act. Perhaps younger, more open minds will see how things have changed since then.
