One group in particular stands out in its decline in support for President Obama. Oddly enough, the major media are ignoring this startling finding. Jonathan Tobin writes in Commentary Contentions:
President Obama may be enjoying a slight, if likely temporary, bounce in the polls this week. But one of the surveys showing him with a lead in a tight race over Mitt Romney also provides a breakdown of the data that confirms predictions that he is losing up to a quarter of the Jewish votes he got in 2008. The Investors Business Daily/Christian Science Monitor/TIPP Poll gives a breakdown of religion along with other demographic groups and shows Obama leading among Jews by a margin of 59 to 35 percent with six percent undecided. While that is still a majority it is a dramatic decline from the 78 percent of the Jewish vote he got four years ago.
Obama has a 46-44 percent lead over Romney in the TIPP poll. That means Obama is suffering from a decline in support throughout the electorate from his 2008 victory when he won 53 percent of the vote. But the president's loss of approximately 25 percent of Jewish voters this year is not matched by a similar decline in any other demographic group. [snip]
the TIPP poll shows him threatening to rival Ronald Reagan's modern record set in 1980 when he won 39 percent of Jewish votes, the most ever by Republican since World War One. [emphases added]
As Tobin points out, while Jews account for a small percentage of the national vote, it is concentrated in Florida, a key swing state, and could be significant in Ohio and Pennsylvania, if they are close.

You could put a stop to duplicate voting (and the dead voting as well) with one simple change:
Use the the Social Security database at voting polls. When you step into a polling place, you yourself enter your SS# into a computer linked to SS, and up pops your name (which had better match your photo id), your permanent address (which had better be in the precinct you’re voting in), your birth date (which had better show you to be 18), and your date of death (which had better be an empty field.)
I’m not sure if your SS record indicates whether you’re a citizen or not, but I’d bet that most non-citizens, whether here legally or not, would have trouble coming up with a Social Security record that matches their photo ID. Then if each state would indicate citizenship on their photo ID, that problem too would be solved.
Finally, we need to return to the traditional use of absentee ballots, i.e., to be used only when possessing a valid excuse for being unable to show up at the polls on election day. And pffft to early voting.
Obama and the Dems will do massive voter fraud and if they report the polls as the truth today how can they account on election night he wins big .
As it is they show the polls skewed for their messiah and on election night the polls with their fraud will be more or less correct
I would tell any Jew that voting for Obama is to vote for another round of Jewish genocide, because that is what I believe.
” Bye bye Florida! HAHAHAHA “
... sure - right until a big boat-load of absentee Israeli ballots accidentially falls into the sea - bye bye that.
Whatever scenario. They are practicing with the military ballots.
What do you think about Oregon?
The last SurveyUSA poll shows the Kenyan +4. That’s a 13 point drop from 2008.

I’ll believe the defection when I see it, same with the Catholics. How does any believing Catholic vote Demoncrat?

What are the D/R splits? Surely Romney isn’t ahead in OR is he?
Here is a list of countries Obama has visited as President:

I don’t see Israel on the list...
1,680 Oregon adults Of the adults, 1,468 were registered to vote.
D/R/I 38/35/27
I just came back from Oregon and was curious about the state because I saw several anti-Obama stickers and a couple of large signs “Obama Must GO”. I asked my daughter about it and she said there is a lot of Anti-Obama sentiment there.
OK, this is a fair, reasonable split for Oregon. So, if Mitt is only down two-—and this is realistic-—that’s incredible. I think Zero is in real trouble.
I’d be curious to know if your observations would have held true if you had traveled to Miami rather than Jacksonville. Much like Houston and Dallas, Jacksonville is technically larger than Miami but the Miami metro area dwarfs Jackson’s. The 1996 election map said it all. All it takes is a select few densely populated blue areas to overwhelm an otherwise red state.
And how can we, your non-Jewish FRiends help with that? btw, we of course would want you to help us convince our own co-religionists about the evil that is Obama and the Dims :)
that only means that we need to keep fighting. Aim for 0 electoral votes for Obama — 0. We should not rest until the day after the elections
is there any way we can push such voters away from Obama? Or do you think that if we speak out we could make them stick to 0? And not just Jewish voters mind you
I don't know if there's any one way. With my Jewish neighbors, the best way to keep them from voting 0 is to keep talking about the economy.
Also, most of them realize we need to make a move toward natural gas and away from foreign dependence for our oil so that's one tack, but I don't know how well that would play with other folks who are ultra concerned about the environment. Lots of those folks aren't looking for an alternative to oil, they're looking for bicycles.
I think it is much simpler than that.
They simply lie. Their main weapon is the lie and they do everything through the lie. I was listening to Hillary Clinton today about the murder of the Libyan ambassador and she was saying that the picture of the dead ambassador being dragged around represented Libyans trying to get him to the hospital. At the same time that she was lying through her teeth, CBS was reporting that the Libyan authorities had told the mob where the ambassador was hiding so they could go and kill him. In other words, this was a plot to get the ambassador murdered and it succeeded. Hillary knew this information. How could she possibly not know? Still she just lied as naturally as possible in her press conference trying to make people think something else. What really amazed me is how matter of factly she did this. These people do not know the difference between a lie and the truth as long as it suits their purpose. Overweighting polls is simply an extension of the lie. It is that simple.
Certainly, it may well be that simple.
