But, IMO, the demonization of Jews as a block of dem voters is naive (as illustrated by younger Jewish voters).

Nobody is demonizing anyone when pointing out voting patterns. I get so sick of that. It is not racist or antisemitic to say 91% of blacks and 80% of Jews voted for Gore. It is the truth. A Philly exit poll showed Bush won, by about 7%, the under 30 Jewish vote. But Gore won 78% of the 30 to 49 age bracket and 95% of those over 65. Those numbers hardly suggest there is going to be any major shift in the near future.

Larry, go back and read what I said here and in lots of posts. I understand that you live in a culture of eighty something FDR supporters, and from a business perspective I’m sure they are a major pain in the *ss. If demonizing bothers you, I’ll replace it with “historic voting patterns bother with you”. From a political perspective, get over this stuff. Look ahead. I don’t know why the Jewish vote is an issue to you, but I can tell you as a Jewish conservative, we are gaining GOP ground big time, especially among the younger voters. I say this in the context of a conservative forum where we are trying to maximize conservative (GOP-GWB) voters. Better to leave the anti-semitic and racist accusation shit. (left out the * on purpose) somewhere else (the Dems are looking). I’ve never given you reason to think that. If I did think that, you wouldn’t have received an answer.
