Israelies support Bush. American Jews who support Israel I think will vote for W this year - Kerry's "impediment to peace" comment about the Israeli wall should resonate.

I'm not sure I believe that Jews vote Dem by that high of a margin. I don't think a whole lot of jews voted for Clinton, especially the second time after he had Yassir "Death to Jews" Arafat over for tea and 'strumpets' in the Lincoln bedroom. Old Abe must have been doing 6000RPM in his casket.

While I haven't taken any sort of a legitimate poll, I can say that from my personal experience, Jews have and do vote for Dems in the vast numbers that this posting describes. I can tell you for a fact that the vast majority of Jews voted for Clinton twice, and if you were to ask most of them, if they could, they'd vote for him again in a heartbeat, and if they get a chance, they'll vote for Hillary for president. And the photo of her hugging Arafat's wife won't matter at all.

To put it bluntly, I'm the "black sheep" of my family, not really republican, actually a conservative with "small 'l' libertarian" leanings, but I can say that I'm the only one in my extended family of about 20 who will be voting for President Bush. And that includes two cousins who live in Israel (they're there for his job... They're still American citizens...).
