Tradition has a strong hold on people.

"My dad was a democrat. My granddaddy was a democrat. His dad was a democrat. We were born three things. Irish, Catholic, and Democrat".

Jews have the same tradition, but I do see a change in allegiance by some younger Jews, much like many of the Irish no longer are automatic democrats. We had Reagan. The Jews have Norm Coleman taking a lead on the right.

You've just described my family LOL!! I even remain a registered Dem because I'm afraid my Union President Dad would roll right out of his grave! Am conservative, and haven't voted Dem in years, but old traditions die hard!!
