For over 100 years, in every country from Hungary to Russia to the UK to Poland to France to the USA to Israel itself, the majority of Jews have supported the left. Bush and Republicans are receiving some support only because of Israel. And that won't translate into support for any conservative issues. There is more of a chance the black vote will shift to the GOP than there is the Jewish vote will.

BLatant Lie.

British Jews break even.
In Israel, the left has not held a majority of the Jewish vote since 1977. It has been put in power each time thanks to the 15-20 % of voters who are Arab.

I could go into NYC politics, where Jews have voted for a Republican in the last 3 elections, twice against a Jewish Democrat.

Isn't the Right in Israel still pretty far to the Left from an American point of view?
