Hamas (none / 0)

Since Hamas is only relevant to Israel, not the United States. I wonder if this Hamas ghost will even make an impact on those voters who matter, like indepedents, liberal republicans, and Jewish voters? Also, did not Al Qaeda support Bush in 2004?

McCain panicked (none / 0)
He is losing the Jewish vote and so he did this slimeball crap to shore up that group.  The point is no one cares but the Jews and they REALLY care.  So he figured he could get a few of them without anyone else even noticing.  This is GOP Politics 101.  Look at the ministers.  They say an endless stream of insane crap that turns out Jesus Freak money and votes and no one else even knows its happening, much less cares.

Neocon Jews (none / 0)
McCain is polling much better with Jewish voters than George W. Bush did in 2004, and a hell of a lot better than Bush did in 2000. Bush received less than 10% of the Jewish vote in 2000. 

If you construct a trendline for Jewish people voting Democrat, you will see their support is dropping like a rock. These Ed Koch Neocon Democrats have had it with the party of Jimmy Carter and Hamas and Hezbollah and al Qaeda appeasement.

I was referring to ethnic jews, not religious jews.

Bush did pretty good (19%) with religious jews, because they are conservative.

That in Bush's world, 19% is "pretty good".

Ethnic jews? (none / 0)
You mean Hebrews, or doe you mean a person of jewish parentage and background who does not actively practice judaism?

Jewry is not a race, nor ethnicity that is a creation of Zionism (read Herzl, he admits it himself).

Example, can I be a Jew and not be circumcized? Not to the state of Israel. Judaism is a religious and cultural entity not unlike Islam.
