"......Plus, Jews - who voted overwhelmingly Democrat in the November election (87 percent, according to exit polls)...

Needs an explanation not couched in "habit from the depression, etc..."

[streetpreacher]

More Jews elected to Congress; not good news for Israel.

[Revolting cat!]

Which means that if they didn't rule the world before, as some alleged, they will now!

[OldFriend]

G-d help us. Save us from our own.

[james500]

Does that mean fewest WASPs ever? I decry this blatant ethnic cleansing of Congress.

"......Plus, Jews - who voted overwhelmingly Democrat in the November election (87 percent, according to exit polls)...

Pretty steep drop... Ronald Reagan won nearly a majority of the Jewish vote in 1984.

[PeterFinn]

Most muslims, Buddhists, and Ba'hai ever set to enter Congress, too.

[Sam Cree]

Bad news. Intellectuals are so very often foolish people.

The statistics on Jewish voting are extremely misleading.

89% of Jews did vote Democrat in 2006, but the reason the number was so high has to do with the fact that the overwhelming majority of Jews live in urban and suburban congressional districts where they were already represented by Democrats.

This year, the national Democrat wave meant that none of those districts were seriously contested by Republicans.

Whenever you have an uncontested race, the incumbent does better than normal. Jews voted for the unchallenged incumbents in their districts, and in almost all cases, the incumbents were Democrats.

They should demand to be sworn in using the Koran, just to PO the slimes...

"...Plus, Jews - who voted overwhelmingly Democrat in the November election (87 percent, according to exit polls) - often see more eye-to-eye with Democratic members on domestic issues and have strong personal relationships with them, according to Ira Forman, executive director of the National Jewish Democratic Council..."

You won't find a stronger supporter of the Jewish People than conservatives, so why is this? Are Jews just like the general public, and 87 percent of them are stupid?

Most Jews ever set to enter Congress

The media, however, will ignore them but pay fawning attention to one Muslim.

Jews - who voted overwhelmingly Democrat

Please file under "Proof not all Jews are smart".

[steamroller]

[metalurgist]

What is the obsession with Jews in the media? So what if six more people that practice the Jewish religion are elected to Congress.

Is the media reporting on how many new Baptists, Protestants, Catholics and Episcopalians have joined congress? Is the "DRIVE BY MEDIA" trying to stir the pot in hopes of getting stories that they can report on?

He called Evangelicals "great cheerleaders" whose backing of Israel never resulted in specific action or was really tested. "They might love Israel, but they hate gays more than they love Israel."

What difference would their stand on moral issues have to do with their support of Israel?

I would say their support of the war against radical Islam would be proving their support of Israel. They support Israel much more than those liberal democrat Jews who seem to hate Israel, by the way they team up with the left.
