United States President Barack Obama has lost nearly half of his support among American Jews, a poll by the McLaughlin Group has shown.
The US Jews polled were asked whether they would: (a) vote to re-elect Obama, or (b) consider voting for someone else. 42% said they would vote for Obama and 46%, a plurality, preferred the second answer. 12% said they did not know or refused to answer.

Nothing has changed over the years(sarc). Sad to see.
Of course when Israel goes to war and we are the only ones to support them,then its a different situation.
They just have to disassociate themselve from the fringe elements. FR is a conservative forum, which monitors better than most on the internet, but clearly not an arm of the GOP, nor associated with them or their candidates.
BO has all the Jewish supports he ever wanted in G Soros, Rahm and Axelrod. He will go for the illegals to make up the difference in lost support.
And I did not say Jewish Americans are anti-American.
Liberal Jewish American are, as are most liberals.
I said, specifically that Jewish Americans seem hypnotized by anything anti-American. I think that’s true.
It’s an urban counter-culture mentality which runs deep. A reflexive support of anything which systematically tips the apple cart.
That’s not the same as accusing Jewish Americans of being anti-American. To the extent you might have reasonably interpreted what I said to mean that, I apologize.
But there’s certainly a “there” there.
Whether it’s PC to observe it, or not.

Only Half??? Come on Jews wake up.
BS the sheep will flock to vote for the democrats AS ALWAYS!
Also note that they would CONSIDER voting for someone else - CONSIDER!
WTF is wrong with the other 50%?
It would be nice if American Jews woke up. But they won’t. They’re hypnotized by anything anti-America.
Start with me, demonstrate how I'm hypnotized by anything anti-America.
Then you can go on to other Jews. Including those in the ACLU (run by a Catholic), Hollywood, and trial lawyers. While you're at it, do you honestly believe there are no non-Jewish people in Hollywood making a dollar or two? The most prominent individual that comes to my mind is a Jewish fellow by the name of Givson, Gibson, something like that. No non-Jewish trial lawyers? And the Jew John Edwards, good thing he didn't win the nomination.
If you feel a need to pursue this, be my guest, but if your typing simply got ahead of your thinking, you might consider leaving it alone.
Fair enough.
Toda’raba. Let’s agree to disagree then. :)
Exactly. BS on the poll. American Jews have encoded anti-Israel DNA and they will vote Dem in the end.
I work with them all the time here in L.A. in business and for all their religious grandstanding, and after conversations, they’re DEms from top to bottom.
The difference between obama and carter is that obama will be re-elected.
FINALLY. TOO LATE?
You don’t know what you are talking about. Jews really turned on Jimmy Carter and helped elect Reagan in 1980. Ironically, they moved back towards Mondale in 1984. . lol.
But Mondale was more pro-Israel than Jimmy Carter was.
“The difference between obama and carter is that obama will be re-elected.”
Who told you this? God? Or are you just shooting your mouth off?

Worth sharing with your address lists and Conservative talk show hosts.
Don’t confuse grievance with rational politics. The Irish voted for the left in America for 120 years. In the UK, they still vote left.
But Obama promised we would all get free unicorns!
