The Jews don't have voting power,they have mechanism & media power...

The only problem with them is that in their effort to fight rightwing nationalism,they support leftwing policies...

There is one thing for sure. Evangelical Christians who are some of the strongest supporters of Jews are not only 2.2% of the population and this Administration's soft stand on Jewish issues has this group highly excited about the upcoming elections. The Helen Thomas fiasco has only emphasized where many in the Democratic Party, and very likely Obama, exist on the issue.

I really hate to generalize or paint any particular group with a wide brush but it's been evident over the years that the strength of the Jews as a whole has always been their ability to solidify and of course raise funds for campaigns.

Typical response of a left winger. "You're only important as long as you support us". Go ahead and kick the Jews to the curb. The republicans will gladly embrace them.

You not only missed my point but your comment about why Christians won't vote for Obama was incorrect as well.

Obama has embraced Hamas. He will lose more than just the Jewish vote.
